So I'm SUPPOSED to get 2 teeth pulled today

[lost-in-nj]

this will be the 3rd attempt....

Even with dieting, excersising, quitting smoking and being on a BP med
my BP is still to high so my dentist won't pull my teeth, WTF??
wants the bottom number under 90.... mine have been 90 and 95

My MD suggested making a late in the afternoon appt. because I take my meds in the morning..... so here I go to my 3pm appointment
and I took an ativan chaser


:evilgrin: :evilgrin:


so keep your fingers crossed for a painless (LOL)
procedure




THANKS

5. Jesus Christ! Does s/he think your BP will come down while you are in pain?

Remove the source of anxiety and then the BP might come down.

7. really

i vote for conscious sedation

9. That's a very good point. The pain of 2 bad teeth can't be good for

your blood pressure.


Lost I hope everything goes well for you today. Here's to lower blood pressure and freedom from tooth pain. :toast:

8. don't be mean parche

hers mouth will hurt

[CaliforniaPeggy]

10. My dear lost...

Ah, sweetie...

Good luck!

Your dentist is just afraid that with your BP up too high, something bad could happen....

I know the pain is awful...

I'm holding the good thought that all will go quickly and well for you today!

:hug:

11. Well didn't do it......

bottom number is to high.....

but only there!!!

the good thing is I AM NOT in pain with these teeth....
I am getting ready to start extensive cosmetic work on my mouth....

have to go to an orthodontist, get bone implants in my upper gums so there is enough room between my sinuses and gums to put posts for implants.....
this was just the beginning.... so I will go to the Ortho now and start there and my regular Dr. to see if I could maybe take 2 bp pills or something stronger than an Ativan on surgery days.....
They are afraid of you bleeding to much if your BP is high......

argh
