    Give her a shot of laughing gas. That should calm her down some.

    When I was in the hospital I made 3 nurses leave the room crying. I have a pain problem. What is a level 3 pain to every one else is a level 10 for me. Giving me an IV was torture for both me and who ever was trying to give it. I found out that pain killers do not work well for me. They came close to ODing me and it still did nothing for the pain. The only thing they could do was to keep me asleep as much as possible.

    I was getting my teeth cleaned and there came the wailing of a 1000 souls from off in the distance, the tortures of the damned were upon us. I inquired about it, a 9 year old girl getting her teeth cleaned!! When I was 8, I had teeth filled with nothing. I still do, I hate the numbness. Caps are are different thing, I’ll take the needles for that.

    “You may feel a little pinch”, the dentist says, as I go to the ceiling!

    Safety first. Tinnitus from ‘screamer’ exposure is not covered by the company insurance plan.

    Why does the dentist bay have a decorative little shelf with some knick knacks on it?

    “I have some good news and some bad news, Mrs. Collins. The good news is… your teeth are in excellent shape, so I just gave you a good cleaning.” “Thank you Doctor, I try hard to take care of them, um… what’s the bad news?” “Well, I cant seem to find my ring… sooooo, I have to trouble you to open wide one more time, while I go get my reacher-grabber thingy… It’s going to hurt like the dickens, but I’ll write you a prescription for good pain killers. Hmm, I can’t seem to find my pen!”
