Hi, I cannot even bring myself to pick up the phone I am terrified I am going to die from the injection a oouple of years ago my doctor gave me some tablets and gave me the wrong dose in error double the dose and it dropped my heart beat to 30 bpm, was a very scarey experience ever since then I won't take anything as I think it will make me die and worry about my heart constantly, but the dentist has been a issue forever for me, I take one look at him and burst into tears, I shake, jelly, numb from head to toe and feel faint (I have a huge fear that if I faint it means there is something really wrong and I have to fight it) I have got to have a couple of fillings, the injection scares me as I think it will be to much or something and I might die, then the drilling that takes for ever then the filling in a chair thats tipped right back, my tooth actually hurts a bit and bleeds everytime I clean it sometimes just bleeds for no reason but I just cannot get my head round it even though my Husband wil lsit and hold my hand and my mum will come as well. I have so many fears I think I read to much I'm 32 and feel like I will never have a child because I read about a rare condition that is fatal at birth and can picture it happening, I carn't even go swimming with out getting out pool and shaking and feeling faint, going out in general is a challenge sometimes and I try to get out of it. Feel like everything passes you by. What you do?
