GENDER : FEMALE
BORN : 1946
NATIONALITY : SWEDISH
DIAGNOSIS : OSTEOARTHRITIS

INFORMATION AS GIVEN BY THE PATIENT (JUNE 2005)

I have, since 1980, had problems with my knees, especially the right one which, after a number of injuries due to falls, has exhibited signs of osteoarthritis. Even the left knee shows signs of incipient osteoarthritis. The osteoarthritis, which is more pronounced in the right knee, has been diagnosed through plain x-ray examination and MR-scan of both knees.

During the Spring of 2005 I have received 6 ECT treatments from Susanne Johansson.

As I have had pain in both knees, further x-ray images were taken during the spring at the Odenplan medical centre in Stockholm. No signs of osteoarthritis, or any other abnormalities, could be found in either knee.
