    I’ll always maintain, if you don’t “believe” in vaccines you should also not “believe” in anesthesia.

      I had a longer list of questions regarding anesthesia than I did my oral surgery to remove my wisdom teeth. The nurses (techs?) made fun of me about my nervous shaking. I withheld the surgery for 8 years in fear of having it done. I had a long time schoolmate die in high school due to an allergy to anesthesia. So yeah, I was scared shitless. That was the first time I was given valium. Then for my vasectomy I requested that shit. I could walk into a battle on that shit without feeling apprehensive in the slightest.

        i was shaking so much during my wisdom tooth extraction, i was literally dizzy and have balance issue because i did it for so long, it was nervouse shaking. theyuse lidocaine now, so no anesthesia which usually is more dangerous.
