Confused MS with bipolar have ECT?

I have had bipolar most of my life and with my last episode I was having ECT treatments and then got (my very 1st) MS symptoms. I have been researching and and the literature also mentions that ECT could initiate or aggravate MS symptoms. Has anyone here experienced similar experiences or has anyone with the duel diagnosis (of bipolar and MS) have ECT without these complications. Up until this happened, I was going to agree to do maintenance ECT, but not if this is going to happen again. I have been having ECT for 10 yr for my severe bipolar episodes and I never had experienced this!!!
