When I had my wisdom teeth out it was out patient surgery because I went all the way out. I have really bad dentist anxiety, or at least I did, and so the oral surgeon wouldn't consider conscious sedation, just in case I did become aware of what was happening and started to panic. Evidentally there are times when people do become aware of what's going on.
It was expensive but I think it was ultimately worth it.
And my dental anxiety is pretty much gone, the last two times I went to the dentist I didn't get nervous or upset. But I still don't like getting my teeth polished, I hate the vibrations.
Also I need some advice about my cats. Dean has had some kind of GI problems since before I adopted him. He was on an antibiotic that was supposed to clear things up and he's on the special high fiber food.
Except (white fonted for details of stomach problems) he's got diarrhea very bad. It's pretty much like water and there's blood mixed in. He's had blood in his stool since before I adopted him. It was getting better but he seems to taken a turn for the worse. In fact he had blood streaked on his fur earlier when he got out of the litter box and I had to wash it all off of him.
So the thing is I'm going to go to the vet on my lunch break Monday and talk to them. He's been like this since, I'm not sure how long, and he's not as big as Maddie, granted he's always been smaller. But could he .. I dunno...die from this? I mean shouldn't the vet be worried that he's had blood in his stool for months now?
Plus I adopted them in good faith that they were healthy only Dean's not. I love him and I don't want to give him up, but I'm not sure I can keep on paying vet bills every month for him. I'm also really worried about his general health and that even though he plays and is affectionate there's something seriously wrong with him that's going to do some real damage.
