hi, i have been going through the mill lately, i have a tooth with a chronic abscess which has been in need of extraction for nearly a year! i have no problem with going to the dentist for check ups, cleaning ect, but as soon as the needle goes in and even a small dose of non adrenalin injection is issued i start shaking uncontrollably, heart palpitations and go cold basically think that something is terribly wrong because i feel awful. wears off after half an hour then i am ok. i do suffer from anxiety, but my dentist has said i might be sensitive to the ingredients in the injection (Scandonest). So if you know of any anaesthesia testing bodies can you advise me i am in the surrey area or if this is just sheer panic causing my symptoms. My next issue is if the continuing problem with my tooth is causing damage to my heart as at xmas i fibrillated and after an echocardiogram have been told i have mitral regurgitation and the cardiologist has told me to get this tooth out but then i am back at square one again worrying if a local anaesthetic will cause my heart to palpitate, fibrillate or stop! catch 22 situation!
