Went to the oral surgeons office....I was so scared.
They took me back and a second later I said I have to go to the bathroom. They seemed used to that. Came back to the dreaded chair and she immediately starts the preps.
A blood pressure cuff, a pulse oximeter, and 2 heart monitors later I am sitting there about to have a panic attack. The dr comes over to say hello and "he'll be with me in a moment" yeah...he can take is time...
hes giving some guy stitches and theyre just all chatty. wow. the nurse lays this plastic apron on me. geez thanks. we having lobster later? then she aks for the ok to put something on me. i started freaking inside and she puts oxygen in my nose. yuck smells like vanilla.
i lay there and count my heart beats. it jumps a bit off and on. think they can tell im really anxious? dr comes in all suited up in yellow. he listens to myheart and lungs and then checks my blood pressure.
"so, where you going on your vacation this morning? the beach? somewhere its cool?"
i basically didnt answer. just kept breathing.
he asked what i had for breakfast. ahhaha funny i couldnt eat or drink since midnight the night before.
"a small mosquito bite here for a sec' IV is in and he starts injecting something. says it will calm me. injects another right after. they tape my arms down......reaaaaly taped them down. everythings getting weird feeling. he tells me to swallow. then i have to bite some thing so i wont clench my teeth.
i wake up with a blankie on shaking really bad. wheelchair to the car and a mouthful of gauze. yuck.
