Hello
I have an all consuming phobia of the dentist. I’ve found a dentist that I can see. I’ve had one appointment and took oral sedation midazolam which worked (yay!!!!). But then I had a second appointment last week and it didn’t work. I don’t know why - it didn’t make me drowsy, it didn’t make me relaxed and I had to stop before any treatment started. I had the same dosage (maximum) and it didn’t have any effect. The dentist tried to reassure me saying it might be the time of day and sometimes it depends on what I had for lunch (I only had a light lunch) and rescheduled me next week.
I’m now terrified beyond belief that it won’t work and even though my dentist tried to reassure me, I keep worrying or wondering why it didn’t work. Has anyone got similar experiences where it hasn’t had any effect on one session but worked the next?
