jimmyb84 Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 Today I had an appointment with a dental surgeon in regards to having my wisdom teeth removed. Due to the way my teeth had grown he reconmended I have the procedure done under a general anesthetic. I explained to him this was not an option for me as I was afraid it would aggregate my per existing medical condition. He gave me a puzzled kinda look and asked me to elaborate, so I briefly described hppd and how it come about. To be honest I couldn't ask for a better response, he was not only understanding but very sympathetic. He said he could operate solely under a local however it would involve me to man up as it wouldn't be a walk in the park. The operation is scheduled in two weeks. I am absolutely shitting my pants.

stormbel Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 Jimmy, a month before I got HPPD, I had my wisdom teeth removed under local, (albeit only 2 at a time). Although the dentist admitted he didn't have exactly the right pliers (????!!) it was bearable. The worst was on day 2 after the OP, when my supply of 'Dolormin' (Ibuprofen + aspirin DL-lysine) ran out. I don't know, of course, how these painkillers, or any others, will affect HPPD, but I would recommend you try to get yourself a supply of CBD oil. I've found a good supplier in Europe: http://www.ebay.de/itm/CBD-oil-high-concentrated-medizinales-cannabis-cannabidiol-0-thc-100-legal-/321365819432?pt=Krankenpflege&hash=item4ad2e54028 It helped me a lot with anxiety. I understand it works best with pain, though. Expensive, but worth a try! After a nasty week, your pain will be almost gone. Good luck. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iHaveSeenEvil Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 My friend had his wisdom teeth done without going under, he said he was nervous but the surgery itself wasn't bad. You're lucky you have an understanding dentist like that! You will be fine, I promise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
