Hi @lioness I have spent many hours researching different numbing agents dentists use , pages and pages, and read a few case studies etc that were easy for average person to read... there seems nothing that could be used to "freeze" my gum to have tooth out - molar - which is sore and I think I am going to have to tell dentist/oral surgeon what my issues are, get the tooth out, and deal with side effects. My nerves are bad enough right now and been on bed last few weeks... I am not :scared" of dentists, just think that this internal tremors on top of not-bad-as-some neuropathy is connected to the lidocaine, epinephrine and other "stuff" have been given over the months: but would have to go to larger municipality to have skin tests done which I cant do and dont have time to wait as dont want to get infection in tooth as all antibiotics make my fecal incontinence worse and i dont want to get c.diff again. I am not only between a rock and a hard place; the rock is getting heavier. I really appreciate your help.. even if they "put me to sleep" I could have reaction to what they use... I am scared stiff. 👵🏻

@lacy2 I'm so sorry to hear this May I make a suggestion but talk with your Dentist about taking pain medicine before you get this tooth extracted.The Dentist may have some good suggestions about this and a substitute analgesic for you .Take a nerve pill to calm you down. TAPPING ON YOUR FEAR does help may take several times and do just before Dental appt .When is your appointment? I see mine next Tuesday.I think mine are infected right now will call him Monday to see what I can do or if I need antibiotics right now .Email me anytime I care
