Hi all,
Home resting from my dental/jaw surgery this morning. It was a little bit more
complicated than originally planned for so some extra work needed to be done.
Had "my "Intra-op hypnosis CD playing and once again the doctor had to ask me
how I was doing, as I was so quite.
The interesting thing is the Xylocaine wore off sooner than usual towards the
end. Took myself to the beach on Hawaii and was "observing" the stitches going
through the back of my gum with the pulling through of the silk thread. It
worked, I became the "Hidden Observer" as Hilgard called it in his book ,
"Hypnosis in the Relief of Pain".
It dawned on me that he looses $400 on me every time we do surgery as I turn
down the offer of office anesthesia. As an anesthetist, I know that the dental
staff will be involved in the dental surgery and there will be no on involved in
my anesthesia "only". I used to work as an anesthetist, for a few oral
surgeons, so I am quite aware of what goes on behind the scenes in the dental
surgery office. It is the only way to go as far as I am concerned.
I had some unexpected good news this evening, as I am resting from the surgery,
I got selected as the member of the monthe from www.freehypnosiscommunity.com.
