I dont respond to local lidocaine or novocaine so the dentist is never a pleasant experience for me... add that to the fact that I'm terrified of needles and it's really crap.
I know what you mean Shemp, I had 2 epidural cortisone fills last year when my disk in my back ruptured... the only way I can describe the feeling is that if someone could stick a water hose into your spine and turn it on full blast, that might approximate it... add that to the fact that you cannot move while they do it or you can be paralyzed and I was a wreck --
