Dear J: Your Root Canal
Hi [J].
Oh, you haven’t gotten the root canal yet? You must be so frightened, especially since you have so much difficulty with the chemicals and medicines anyway. Perhaps there might be some homeopathically tailored means of doing this procedure, one that uses only natural materials and compounds? However, I know of no natural medicine that can numb nerves the way Novocaine (procaine) and lidocaine can. And you definitely need all the numbing you can get when it comes to a root canal. I had one done in 1998. Not too bad. But then I respond well to the medications involved. There must be other drugs they can use that are more agreeable to you. Perhaps you might get a second opinion? Anyway, sending positive thoughts and well wishes your way.
