Teeth

Welcome to the wonderful world of resistance to local anesthetic and simultaneous sensitivity to them! Dealing with dental stuff has been a nightmare lately. I never had these issues before. Use an anesthetic, heart races, insta nausea, lightheadedness and feeling like you’re about to black out. I was grateful for laying in a chair while also being terrified I’d have to jump up in case the nausea won. We used so much stuff too and it wasn’t cutting it. The dentist said she usually only sees extra nerves in these areas in natural red heads, or maybe it’s fibro related. But my natural undertone is red anyway so… thanks white side.

They rescheduled me, told me to stop taking one script, and ordered another one for me to take right before the appointment. It helped, it made the anesthetic work a little better. Then we had complications replacing a crown and it was a goddamn mess, the appointment took twice as long and we didn’t cover everything. How aggravating.

And now my teeth hurt! I never understood this, you don’t feel the work while it’s happening. And I get the anesthetic wore off, but there is no active drilling so wtf. Teeth pain is the worst. !@#$
