My Dentist thinks I'm overly sensitive to pain. Fancy THAT ! ! He's digging around in my jaw, and I have the audacity to complain ! !! I saw him yesterday, and he talked me through all the things he was doing for me so it wouldn't hurt so much. He gave me one huge shot of Novacaine, and promised to remove my old fillings quickly, and so on ... Seems like the more honest I am regarding my needs, the more people act like I'm some daft hypochondriac ! !! Today I'm sore all over as I tense my body while he's poking around. (He removed two old fillings that were prolly around 30+ years old.)

Probably not. I had a student doctor do the second half of my vasectomy. He was doing mostly alright until he noticed that I was sitting up watching. Then he got a bit queasy. hehe

LOL....I made them keep me awake for my tubal ligation and I was mad that they put up a sheet...I had to watch in the overhead lamps (the big metal casing around them casts a blurry reflection). I would have rather watched...they could have at least got one of those mirrors from the maternity ward.

I do HATE the dentist however....I dont like people messing with my face in general.

I am like you Rekoil I like to watch the majority of the time, when I was little I insisted they draw blood from my hand so I could watch ^_^. Oh liloleme I am like you too I can't stand surgery done anywhere done my face, a dentist wanted to cut out all four of my wisdom teeth with a local pain killer, well I almost killed him when I saw the needle it didn't help I was doped up.

Anyways my doctor respects me, she has never said anything negative except she chewed me out for my nails, I have a need for my nails to be perfect and I ruin them nine times out of ten.

He probably did back in 2006 when I was a major hypocondriac. I had all kinds of unexplained pains but I also got sick a lot that year too. Turned out those unexplained pains were from depression. Last time I saw him was was back in April of this year, I had a physical. If he thought I was a sissy before he sure didn't that last time. He was impressed with the shape of my body after I had been going to the gym for a while.

My old dentist was rubbish and never let the anaesthetic take effect. I never bothered about fillings until she got hold of me - privately we called her the "driller killer".

My sister, who's quite a bit older than me, had an old dentist when she was a teenager who didn't believe in injections, so she had most of her fillings without any anaesthetic or pain relief at all. I'd rather have suffered and lost the teeth than gone through that

Then you have more balls then me i almost said,
that is one thing i would not want to watch

Anyting else is no problem, i could watch my own
open heart surgery no problem, but i draw a line
in the sand when i comes to my groin, i`d take off
my own right hand using a rusty spon rather then
doing a vasectomy
