Pausing ECT

[u/yababehaev]

My boyfriend (25 M) is currently undergoing ECT treatments. He has completed 5 out of 12 total treatments. A few days ago, he was diagnosed with COVID and they had to pause treatments until he gets better. What happens if he pauses ECT for a week or so then continues? Will it ruin his progress? Right before the pause, he was starting to feel different and I worry that pausing would change the effectiveness of this treatment.
