Advice please to shock waves after tooth removal

Evening all, hoping someone will be able to help, i had some teeth out on friday and as last 1 came out i had what i can only describe as an epileptic fit (im not epileptic that im aware off), couldn’t move or speak, although i can remember everything that was going on around me unsure how long it went on for seened ages but no was just under an hour from 1st extraction to going home.
Dentist was saying i was having a panic attack but i know it was not as i have hsd these before and it was definitely not this, i was screaming out please call me an ambulance and if you no me that is not something that i would ever say lightly, in fact i dont would rather not call them but was so scared my whole body was shaking uncontrollably and i was not in control of my body which is not uncommon with ms but nothing at all like this, has anyone ever had anything else like this or any ideas what on earth happened??
I have settled back down now and think gone back to how i was befoee all be it still very tired but generally back to before

Thanks in advance for your help

Sounds a horrible experience. The only thing that I thought of was that a couple of times when having a local anaesthetic for dental work, I got uncontrollable trembling and began feeling really cold. Apparently it was a reaction to the adrenaline in the anaesthetic and isn’t an uncommon reaction. Now I always make sure they give me the one without adrenaline and it’s never happened since.

Hope that helps.

Crumbs, that sounds horrid. The only thing that I have had is a reaction to the adrenaline in the injection. I was walking from the dentist’s chair to the door and escape, and suddenly felt weak and faint, cold and sweaty with racing heart. I couldn’t imagine what was going on, but the dentist reassured me that this reaction to the drugs is just something that happens sometimes.

Hi kazzad . The only sort of similar thing that I’ve experienced is Trigeminal neuralgia and short sharp excruciating shock of pain down one side of my face and into my jaw. Total and incapacitating agony especially when these came in quick succession. Mercifully these died down over a few days
