Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) Support Group
The term hypoglycemia literally means "low blood sugar." Hypoglycemia can produce a variety of symptoms and effects but the principal problems arise from an inadequate supply of glucose as fuel to the brain, resulting in impairment of function. Derangements of function can range from vaguely "feeling bad" to coma and in the worst case, can be fatal.
I've needed my wisdom teeth out for at least six years now, and i've kept putting it off out of my fear on needles, the cost, recovery, etc.
One of my back molars had to be extracted a year ago because I had a tendency to get cavities and root canals in my back teeth no matter what I used or how well I took care of my teeth. This open space allowed for one of my wisdom teeth to push through my gum partially and it was not positioned correctly and it giving my extreme pain. I'm going to a really great dental school to get themremoved because it is inexpensive and I currently do not have insurance.
My appointment time got messed up and I have to wait anther week until Monday to get them out. I'm in severe pain and really anxious my teeth and gums are being damaged now that the wisdom tooth is poking out of my gum...
Anyway, I thought I could get gas but the dentist said I needed iv sedation. I'm freaking out. I need these teeth out but am extremely afraid of needles, I often pass out, and I have low blood sugar and sometimes seizures and I can't eat or drink that morning. I've been taking vitamins but think about this all the time every day non stop.
I have three days off my j job were i'm constantly talking and on my feet and pretty active. I can't afford to miss anymore work than that...
Someone please share your experiences support.
Idk if i'm more afraid of the iv actual surgery possible risks and recovery time... Not to mention my unpredictable boyfriend is the one taking me, staying and picking me up. I just want to relax... I've never been so anxious for dental issues, I think its the sedation i'm worries about honestly. Help, totally psyching myself out

after the surgery
they told me I woould be bruised up for a while because they had to cut through jawbone to get at one of my teeth(I had all four wisodom teeth pulled at the same time_) .
to watch for drysocket and if I felt it to comeback and see them right away at no extra cost.
and they gave me and script for pain meds..I was out of wrok for 5 days(1 just happends to be my day off)
and disoling sttches don't exactly melt they sort of break apart until you accidentally end up eating them. oh, and the bruising is normal.
