Topic: Little Things That Irritate Me

Sadly, I'm in the same group.

Ditto for aesthetics.

General anesthetics I've never had an issue with, but locals, lots of problems.  I've found this out quite a few times unfortunately.  The worst time was about 15 years ago when I had a cyst removed from my back.  They kept giving me more and more and every time the surgeon cut, it hurt like hell.  They finally switched to something else (not sure what they were using, or what they finally used) but it did a better job - still not completely numb, but better.  I've only had dental work done twice in my life and the dentist remarked that it took an immense amount of freezing.

Same. IIRC, IQ said a small percentage (5 percent? ) suffer from this.

Childhood was hell going to dentist..basically nothing ever frozen. And because I was a kid, they didn't believe me when I told them I wasn't frozen/I was hurting.

I know better now, so when I got to dentist I specifically ask for a procedure called a nerve block.

Did you mean to say that or was it a typo.   I can certainly imagine being immune to aesthetics!

I know a woman who had open stomach surgery...she was out...but she wasn't.  Gave her something to paralyze her, but she was awake and in severe pain the entire time, and unable to move or signal anyone something was horribly wrong.  Scary shi#.

Yea, I was awake once during surgery. No pain...but could hear people talking and all sounds.

Is it that unusual? I had a crown done last year (first one ever) and I remember the dentist saying he was going to do a nerve block. I didn't ask for anything special or make any kind of fuss over it, it just seemed routine.

Yes...unusual for normal work like a cavity.

People driving around in igloo-mobiles. Yes, it's that time of year again.

Lost two pairs of gloves in the last two weeks.  I just bought another pair of marmot ones from winners.  I WILL NOT lose them again.

Those are some interesting colors. What are you using for toothpaste these days?
