Felt faint, weak (v v slightly drunken sensation??) after numbing injections??
This freaked me out somewhat.. my dentist said it wasn't normal when I asked him, he just said "hmmm, so you feel drained?".. I didn't, I sort of felt like my BP had dropped through the floor, but I didnt want to feel anymore like a crazy woman, so I shrugged it off
But I got my numbing injection (Without any numbing gel prior to it, is that normal!??), I had to go and sit out in the waiting room ("because other people are waiting"), then shortly after sitting down I started to feel a bit.. out of it?
The only way I can describe it is weakness and feeling slightly drunk. The last time I felt anything similar throughout my body, was when I was given a shot of morphine, obv he didn't give me morphine!
I am small, a size 6 (underweight, thanks to IBS.. made worse by stress!?!), and I have a low blood pressure. I had eaten and drunk water before I went, about an hour or so beforehand.
The last time I got numb, and there was plenty of it because it was for an extraction.. but I had no problems like it then. The worst then was panic, verging on panic attack, because my throat felt numb I took this to mean I was going to choke, it felt swollen etc and my anxiety kicked in.. But this time I felt totally rubbish!
