I am dreading tomorrow now and am really scared about what this root canal involves. My heart is beating like mad and I am just terrified that it will hurt or that I will have a reaction to the anesthetic and the thought of sitting in that chair for all that time is horrible.
I really am worried. Has anyone else had root canal before? What does it involve and is there anything that can go wrong? What happens if I get too freaked out and need to leave half way through??
I know I sound like a wimp but this is really worrying me!!
Thanks guys x
