A Love Story and Medical Advice
I don't have the credentials to give medical advice but I'm going to pass on some good information wrapped up in a story of Love.
A Love Story
I will seek and find you . . . . . .
I shall take you to bed and have my way with you .
I will make you ache, shake & sweat until you moan & groan.
I will make you beg for mercy, beg for me to stop.
I will exhaust you to the point that you will be relieved when I'm finished with you.
And, when I am finished, you will be weak for days.
All my love,
The Flu
Now, get your mind out of the gutter and go get your flu shot! ;D

Needles!!! :horror: :ack: :scoot: :peepsofa:
-
It's strange, but dental needles never both me - I think it's the ability to see the things that gets to me. :ack:
-
Dental needles are the worst, I had several yesterday when I had a wisdom tooth removed and a filling done. I also was given gas, not sure if it worked or not, I've only ever had it once before when I was in labour and it made absolutely no difference what so ever.

I had a needle inserted into my coccyx last week :nerves: It could have been a lot worse but a friend convinced me to relax and deep breathe whenever having an injection and it works to a large extent :thumb:

Usually, for a wisdom, MB, they would use a number of 'gum numb' injections, followed by an ID (inferior dental) or nerve block. That's the one given with a long needle to the inside (tongue side) of the gum. If a dentist hits the nerve right, it feels like they've just put the needle through your tongue. :o
Gas is very rarely used in the UK now, though it was commonplace when I was a kid. Only specialist clinics tend to perform dentistry under general anaesthetic, most use sedation when needed.
Hope you're not too sore today. :)

I did have two wisdom teeth out over twenty years ago and was injected with valium and some other drug which knocked me out for the procedure, which was nice.
It's a little tender, but I would love to have a bowl of muesli as yogurt and soup is getting boring. :(
-
It's the hot salt water mouth washes that get to me, MB. After a while, it feels like I've been eating nothing but salt beef. :(

I know that's what I'm suppose to be doing, three times a day :ack:, but I never did that with any other extractions, plus I smoked and drank shortly after each of them. Probably why I have had to have them removed in the first place. :blush:
Well I don't smoke or drink anymore that has to be enough. ;D
