Dear Ms. Stansbury, I currently get an ECT every three weeks. It works well to help mt depression. One side effect is I have memory loss. It's manageable. My pdoc and myself are concerned about it. I do know a man who had ECT's and any memory prior to having them is lost. He situation is because the doctor who administered them gave him too many in a short period of time. I feel that his circumstance is rare. I go to a website www.ect.org. .You will get answers to both sides pro and con. There are people there who've had ECT. I hope you find the answers to your questions.   Sincerely,   Dave Robbins
