Just make sure u ask them to pack the area so u don't get dry socket and end up puking when u get home [Edited 4/10/08 21:11pm] you're right a iv is nothing...but an iv hurts like a motherfucker!! Actually when I had my c sections ...I had a training nurse that asked if he could try putting the iv in ..he used me as a damn pin cushion ...I had the biggest brusies all the way up my arm..and he still didn't get it in ....I don't remember to much about the pain though....I was to worried about the knife about to slit open my stomach | |

DevotedPuppy said: I hate IV's too--I will spare my story again, but my advice is to not watch them, not look at it after it's done, and try to think about something else while they are doing it. Maybe they could let you listen to music? (Or the phone is a good idea, but will you be able to get reception?)
You'll be fine, it's not as bad as you are probably thinking (the IV, that is--I never had wisdom teeth removed) but I still hate it and wouldn't want to have another one. eep. i'm hoping if i mention over and over how getting an iv is a massive phobia for me they'll be extra nice | |

Well i had an IV just yesterday in fact. I was actually asleep when they did it, so i'm no good source for ya. ;D It might hurt when they put it in, but it doesn't hurt at all when they take it out. They're annoying as hell though, especially when you have to go to the bathroom. But they're necessary. | |

You'll be glad when it's done. Better than having it hanging over your head. Dentists torture you, yes, but generally they accomplish stuff, unlike doctors who seem offended that you came in to waste their time.
Dentists actually patch teeth, pull bad ones, etc. I am so happy I got my wisdom tooth pulled (only one, I was lucky)! The visit sucks but you'll feel better. My Legacy

i'm such a pussy. You'll be fine. Just relax. It sounds hard to do, but the more you relax, the easier this will be. I had my wisdom teeth pulled and never felt a thing. You'll be fine! | |

yeah me too, but I only had one tooth pulled. I think if it's 4 big teeth it's a bigger procedure. My Legacy

You'll be fine. I had 2 removed at once and it wasn't actually too much of a big deal. Mine was just local anesthetic too.

evenstar said: hokie said: What are you having done? They're really not that bad. Don't look while they're doing it. Are you asking if the IV is bad? getting all my wisdom teeth out. i'm just wondering how much it hurts, basically. i'm a massive wuss. Laurel...are you sure you can afford to have them taken out?.... | |

In all seriousness.... the IV is a little pinch....fluids feel cold....all momentary....then you're feeling like a million bucks and some dentist has his hand up your shirt....errrmm....ummmm I mean.... I'm sure it will be fine (make sure you wear something pretty though.... )
I was eating fine the next day...no hassles no problems.... | |

Imago said: R They keeping U awake?
If so, you'll be so damned high you won't even know what's going on. This is true One time I had to have 4 teeth pulled in one office visit (not my molars) and I was so blasted high that the dentist had pulled 3 teeth and was pulling the 4th before I even realized that they had started. I was awake! The only reason I realized they were pulling my teeth is because the last one I felt them pulling through the haze of my high and I moaned and the doctor realized that he hadn't given me any numbing shots on that tooth! 2010: Healing the Wounds of the Past.... http://prince.org/msg/8/325740 | |
