ECT went well today
I am feeling a bit tired and my neck is a little stiff. I had a bit of a headache when I first woke up but some tylenol took care of it. I was kind of disorganized when I first woke up. Like, they asked me where I was and I knew that but then they asked me what the date was and I had to think really hard just to remember the month. But I am feelng less disoriented by now.
I have gluey stuff in my hair from the electrodes so I gott go wash my hair in a bit. But they put me out before doing anything other than starting the IV. I don't remember them sticking the electrodes on or anything.
So all and all, it went OK.

The fuzziness was not too bad and seems gone by now. I am a bit concerned it'll get worse as I have more treatments but I think I am pretty prepared to deal with it. Next ECT is Friday.
The worst part, really, is that the hospital that does it is an hour and 40 minutes away. That makes a long drive three days a week. Although I dozed most of the way home.
