OK, so Josie figured something out.
PROTIP:
Marcane contains epinephrine.
This isn't/shouldn't be a big deal, but I tend to be a bit sensitive to it. I had gotten a shot of marcane at the ER on Saturday, and felt some effects and found out it had epinephrine after and that wasn't a huge deal. It didn't occur to me that might be a factor in how I was feeling during the extraction because I didn't think about the fact that they gave me WAY more than they had on Saturday. Like way.
So... biological fear response much?
yeah.
I mean, not that I would have been all sunshine happy, but I think that probably explains the extent of how just completely and utterly scared and disturbed I was.
So, Auntie2014 you did have a point with your first post- I was just thinking like... altered consciousness kind of medication, not a local anesthetic. Haha sorry.
DUH.
I am going to ask about the similar med that they give to people with heart issues that doesn't have the epinephrine, but actually now that I have that in mind and it makes sense to me, it will actually be easier to deal with.
Brains are so weird.
Thanks for the help everyone.
