I know that this may sound totally irrational but I need a bit of reassurance about an upcoming wisdom tooth removal. I am booked in to get my lower wisdom tooth out in 2 weeks and will have IV sedation but I am totally terrified after my spinal didn't fully work for my planned c-section 4 months ago so I felt more pain than I should have and spent the whole procedure in a complete panic - crying, shaking and screaming with pain etc. They gave me Fentanyl to calm me down which worked enough for them to finish stitching me up but I am worried I am 'allergic/immune' to anesthetic or something?
My brain is somehow connecting the two procedures (even though I know taking a baby out is a little more serious and complicated than a tooth!) and I can't stop freaking out about it.
I have searched and read lots of threads here regarding the IV sedation and the overall opinion seems to be that it's very easy and nothing to worry about but I wouldn't mind hearing some more stories to stop me having a complete meltdown about all of this.
I feel like such a wimp and can usually cope with stuff like this with no problems (I have had a natural childbirth as well as the c-section, and two upper molars out with just a local so know exactly what it entails) but am blowing this all out of proportion and having nightmares and flashbacks related to the c-section. Help!
