Yesterday was a rough day, but the interesting part is that I don’t remember most of it. I don’t even remember going to bed. It has to be from the ECT. I feel still pretty messed up today, and that’s not how it normally happens. Apparently, I need another day to rest after this past ECT treatment. That’s very abnormal; usually I’m back my normal self the next day, but not this time. I’m trying to continue on with my day, getting things done, but I’ve having a more difficult time than normal. I’ve crossed a couple of things off of my list, but I don’t know if I can keep going. I was going to change my weekly blood work to Thursdays instead of Fridays, but I’ll do that next week. I can’t handle having another thing to do today. I’m even struggling in my writing today. My brain just is not all there. I’m perplexed, confused, baffled, and puzzled today. Hopefully, I’ll get part of my brain back as my day goes on.

Could it have something to do with the new medication and dose that you are on?

I don’t think so. But I do check in with my psychiatrist every day. I told him how I’m feeling today, if there is a connection, he will let me know.

Is it possible that ECT has some interaction with with the drug rechallenge you are going through? Is it possible that the higher does amplify the effect of ECT memory loss? Who knows? You really are on the frontiers – exploring solutions that have not been tried or at least well documented before.

I’m not sure, it could be possible. I tell my psychiatrist everything, so if there is a connection, he would tell me.
