EGO thats not a nice story........... Merry don't listen ....... its very safe behind this sofa, come join me .

I knew you'd say that! UPDATE - I meant Frank! Ego - that is NOT what I wanted to hear! That is what I was scared of in 1989. Merry

when i had my wisdom teeth extracted i went to theatre,they dislocated my jaw,took the teeth out under a general anaethetic,3 hours later I woke up with blood all over my pillow,and didnt have the strength to button my shirt-in fact they wheeled me out to the car in a wheelchair....my face looked like it had a large tennis ball in my cheek,and had to keep the area clean with a saline squirty bottle,...........just thought I'd share that with you........

What not even that nice drug that makes you drunk? Given as an injection? Had that 18 yrs ago made me say all sorts of funny things hubby said...oh yes hubby had to be there too..........or gas and air? Laughing gas? Oh I'd want putting to sleep oh Merry ......... they must give you something they HAVE TO............. gonna hide back behind the sofa I'm not easing the situation.

Are we speaking of conception or delivery, Linda?!!! Merry

Better make your mind up dentist will have to alter position of the chair for a baby lol Linda

Thanks Granny!! Merry

When I was 24 I was told I would have to have both bottom wisdom teeth extracted. So......after 20 years or so of regular dental attendance, that visit was my last for over a decade, because I was terrified! When I was about 35 I broke a top wisdom tooth and had it taken out. I resolved to defeat my fears and attend regularly again. After one 6 month appointment and one filling the dentist retired, so......guess what? I stopped going! Last Sept I broke off part of another back tooth. I ignored it, but about two months ago I started to get toothache in and around it and the last week I have realised this isn't going to go away as the pain is getting much worse!!!! Sooooooooooo, this morning I have visited the dentist just to make an appointment! Am going for an assessment on Friday. I cried at the reception desk because I'm sooooo scared (and embarrassed too.....hubby says I must cure my bad breath - there's an admission for you!!) So, please tell me I can get past Friday and whatever treatment needs doing. This work will be private, not NHS, so please send me your donations!! Once I'm back to square one, I want to register with an NHS dentist and get back to regular visits. Ohhhhh, but I'm soooooo SCARED! I would rather deliver another baby than go to the dentist :o(( I know I will be making an excuse that I can't find an NHS dentist when it comes to the crunch (no pun intended!!)!! Scared Merry x

Course it won't. What won't?

Tell me it won't be as bad as I think!.........mo..........
