Thank you brit and scaredinthechi,
The wait is dreadful isn't it?
I woke in the early hours of this morning in absolute terror and didn't get back to sleep again. It takes me right back to my earlier years when I needed a tooth removed, one time I travelled for miles with a raging toothache to see a dentist, I smelt the gas when I was half way up the stairs and fled the building. Thank goodness that the rubbery smelling gas mask which they strapped over the mouth and nose is not used anymore.
It was drummed into me from an early age from my parents and friends that I must opt for being put to sleep via gas mask rather than the LA.
There were so many stories in the olden days about them feeling the tooth being pulled and also some of the teeth were left there after being partly pulled out. One of my friends who died this year still had a tooth in that was partly pulled from years and years ago.
