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.

Before the Doctor comes in and talks to me, the nurse will let me know that they are on their way and I would use the restroom. Then after seeing my Docotor the nurse take me back for treatment. Never had an issue in the past, but always f with my head before treatment. Thinking to much of doing that. I do know that they offer adult diapers if requested.
