It sounds like you have a good handle on this RhysMadison.

Ativan is rather fast acting for most people and your description of it sounds like it was potent for you. Your idea of taking only half tonight sounds like you're listening to your body well.

I know this root canal is scary but you're going to be on the other side of it before you know it! Your dh is going to be delivering you and taking you home. Your doc or therapist was going to get in touch with the dentist which will have helped ease the way.

You're going to go in there tomorrow morning properly medicated and they will then make sure to administer the appropriate amounts of their dental numbing stuff (real medical terminology there! ) so that you are not feeling anything in the area of the tooth being worked on.

You have not only the right but the obligation for everyone inside to use a hand signal with the dentist if anything hurts at any time. A good dentist will stop immediately and make sure that you're okay before proceeding. Your dentist is going to be a good one!!

Thinking of you now and will continue on thinkin' of ya tomorrow while you're in the chair.

Healing thoughts your way hon.
