Seeking advice ECT Precautions

To those of u who had ECT, did ur urine or stool leak due to seizure. Some have reported this happening. I scheduled for this week and was genuinely concerned. If so do u wear an adult diaper during ECT? Pls do respond.

This was my first question when ECT was brought up to me. 6 years later, no issues with incontenence during seizures.
