I had a dentist appointment today to get some cavities filled. I usually don’t mind the dentist, but I hate shots. And to fill my cavities, I had to have both sides of my mouth numbed with a lidocaine/epinephrine combination. The epinephrine immediately made my heart start racing, and I felt light-headed. While, I have fainted after shots before, I’ve never had this strong of a reaction to an anesthetic. I don’t do well with medications in general, and I had also never been given a shot with the epinephrine in the mix. It was kind of frightening.
I’m also concerned about the non-Clean nature of the anesthetic. During the detoxification you aren’t supposed to take any medicines aside from those prescribed by your doctor. I suppose this fits under that category.
