Hi my name is Ashley and I have something going on with me that I think is anxiety. 2 years ago I started having my finger tips and my lips going numb after I mowed a lawn. I went to the hospital and my oxygen level was normal and they had me wait in the room then the doctor came in after I was ok again shot me in the butt and told me it was anxiety. I didn't know so few months went by and the I quit smoking cold turkey went from 2 packs a day to nothing because it felt like I couldn't breathe. So 1 year and a half goes by I am feeling like I'm being choked my face turns red my inhaler doesn't help I go get a lung x-ray and my lungs are fine that doctor told me to seek mental help. I constantly worry about me dyeing and not being able to support my family. I now realize I have been controlling my breath and every other breath I have to take a deep breath. Starting out I couldn't take a deep breath and now when I tell myself I don't have to I freak out and my body reacts weird. My heart races all the time and I feel like I a going crazy at times till I have to pull myself together. But now I have to go get all my teeth removed I'm 23 and I a m scared to death. I have to undergo iv sedation the twilight. Will I be ok if I do because I am always controlling my breathing I think I will freak out ad die because i cant breathe because of the anesthetic numbing my whole mouth. I am scared to the point I'm crying I cant eat I can barely sleep. I want to live for my family they need me and I need them. Has any one with my problem ever went through the twilight sedation for full mouth extraction? and for those like why is she losing her teeth I am because I didn't take care of them and my diet since I was very young has been sweets and soda but I'm 118 I used to be almost 200 when I was 15.
