Hi Dan,
I also tried rTMS, I travelled from the Uk to Vancouver and it did absolutely nothing although the guy who was giving me the treatments really wanted it to work for me bless him. He told me that they'd had lots of good results from it at the clinic and I couldn't understand how. I felt like a bit of a failure for the fact that it didn't work, felt like throwing myself off the bridge at one point.
So I don't understand why some of these studies conclude that it will be a possible alternative to ECT. I've heard on one person on here though (Pfinstegg) who found it very helpful. Just goes to show then. But I personally don't think it will be very affective for rTMS.
What are you thinking of trying next if this treatment doestn't pan out?
Denise
