> Hey!!! ECT (unilateral)wasn't a big scary deal after all!!! Today, I finished a sixth treatment. I'm already feeling pretty good. Three days ago, I took a depression rating exam before I had my first ECT session. On this Beck's depression scale, I had scored a 56 (40 is extremely depressed). Today, my score was 29. After the holidays, I'm recieving the final six treatments.

Hey Nancy! That's great news, wow I can't believe you had six treatments in 3 days, I was under the impression the treatments took a few weeks and maintenance was as needed, also I was told that continued meds would be necessary. Good luck, keep us posted!!!
