my husband suggested next time ehrn I go to the dentist to take 1 anxiety pill prescribed by my neurologist. I try not to take it, using Reiki and meditation. If need be I take a half pill and I sleep well. Anyone suggestions for me?

I always get appointments afternoon because I’m much more relaxed than the mornings

Thank you for sharing your experience. I aet an appt at the beginning of my second meds, no dyskinesia until I sat in the chair. It was like my body was saying ha, ha, ha, you can't fool me. Then my dyskinesia went full speed into jerks. Plus my right shoulder which aches due to a recent fall, had a mind of it's own. But, will try again.

I don’t take any anesthesia at dentist office and I just let him get on it I’m convinced anesthetic makes me feel sick and shaky

I just had a bridge removed. I scheduled it to be done during my best time of the day . Stress and anxiety took over and my tremor acted up. It took about two hours and didn’t cause a problem. Good luck!
