OK, so I know the whole point of sedation (for me anyway) is to get relaxed and be a bit out of it so I am not lying there rigid like a board, just waiting to feel 'that' pain in the supposedly totally numb lower molar while having a root canal.
Hapened twice before, and I can't do it again so I am trying IV sedation this time, and local anaesthetic of course.
My question is for anyone who has had IV sedation. What happens if you feel 'that' pain when you are sedated? Do you not feel it the same way? Do you feel it, but not care? Do you feel it, then forget about it afterward (now, how would they know THAT )
I just can't get my head around the whole 'how does sedation help with the pain' thing.
Hope someone can help.
