Went under to have my wisdom teeth removed and I swear I was in hell for 5 seconds. All I could see was faded yellow and orange and I was hearing screaming.

I got shots before my teeth extraction. Don't dentists offer that where you got yours done? I would've just refused otherwise because even with the drugs I could feel the tools scrape against my skull or tissue or whatever.

I've heard pregnant women don't get anaesthetic because it was dangerous for the baby.

They do offer it, but there was something about my case that didn't make me eligible.
