Seizure in dentist office

by brenda82, Feb 20, 2008 11:02AM
Yesterday  I had a seizure in my dentist office. I am so afraid it will happen again and I have 2 boys I stay home with all day. The dentist had already given me 2 shots in the mouth and was giving me my third when my eyes I couldnt see straight and I just blacked out. when i woke up there were a bunch of emergency people there. Could it have been mabe that the dentist hit a nerve with the numbing agent? Could it have been something else? Have you ever heard of such a thing?  I am just afraid it will happen again. I am also about 6-9 weeks pregnant. I am going to my ob/gyn  next week. Please is there a possibility this will ever happen again? I need to know.

It sounds like you were hypoxic which means there was a lack of oxygen which might have caused the seizure. There are a number of possible causes for this and I am sure that your MD will explore them.I can't tell you it will not happen again until you know the cause.
