> I didn't find that it assisted me. I was upset to learn that they gave me bilateral. Very upset to learn that they would risk my language ability. Still they were trying to keep me alive when I was extremely suicidal.
I had 6 bilateral treatments and of course do not remember when but at least 10 or 15 years ago. I never heard of it affecting language ability. I have trouble remembering words all the time when I want to say or type something. I am constantly using a thesaurus to try and get the right word because of my memory or just stuck kind of in a sentence or thought. Is this the type of thing you are talking about? I had never heard of it having an effect on language.irene
