Having major anxiety right now. I have to get three teeth pulled and I have mild sleep apnea. My fear is something will happen and I wont wake up because of the apnea. He is putting me to sleep for the procedure.The oral surgeon told me he has dealt with stuff like this for many yrs and I will be just fine. Its like im not hearing it and I have been having alot of anxiety attacks lately.The teeth have to go soon. Im in ALOT of pain!!!! I just need to get it together. I dont know why I worry myself to death!! I worry about every little thing. Im making myself crazy!! I should trust this man he worked with my grandfather. My grandfather had a bad heart and all kinds of stuff wrong with him and he did just fine through his procedure.
A few months ago my PCP sent me to a oncologist because my platelet count was low and that could be an indicator of cancer. The appointment was 2 weeks away and it's all I thought about every second of the day and night so I know what you are going through.
What you have to tell yourself is that this is a little bump in life and you will live through it and think 'I sure did waste some good hours (or days or months) worrying for no reason.' Because you will be ok. These people aren't going to let anything happen to you for the simple fact that they would put themselves in a bug mess if they did.

I hope you feel better!
