Avatar f tn in july i had to have a deep clean, i told the dentist i was 7 weeks pregnant and she gave me lidocaine with adrenaline....it didn't work..i felt every thing and ran out the dentist in tears...just over a week later i miscarried my baby...at first i didn't think of the anaesthetic i was given..it wasn't until about a month later after i had grieved that i researched it and i found out that lidocaine can cause organ failure in the foetus in early pregnancy!!
Avatar f tn So I have really bad vaginismus to the point where intercourse can only be done with a lot of lidocaine and with the help of dilators. I am 15 weeks pregnant and concerned about delivery. Will my vaginismus prevent me from vaginal delivery? Is anyone else dealing with or has dealt with this??
1571533 tn?1322943509 Hey. I went to my PCP yesterday and he gave me a LIDODERM, a lidocaine patch, to try and help with the pain in my neck -he thinks if that calms down so will the migraines.. theyve been everyday constantly for well over a month and a half, and no meds help.. nor do therapeutic methods i have here at home.. Has anyone here used it before? And did it help? I tried to use it last night but it wouldnt stick to my neck.
Avatar n tn Hi, I have had this type of pain almost constantly for over a year following pressure trauma and subsequent anaerobic sinus infection while doing marine research involving intensive SCUBA diving. I had the lidocaine block as a diagnostic test to indicate that I was a good candidate for sinus surgery, and would not recommend it as a long-term treatment or solution.
Avatar f tn m uncertain if I should get them taken care of while pregnant. How many shots of lidocaine did your dentist use? Did the dentist mention anything about the safety of the baby while numb?
Avatar f tn I'm 6 weeks pregnant, and believed I pulled a muscle in my mid back it hurts like crazy and can't take anything, any suggestions on how to relieve this pain.
Avatar f tn s dangerous to use someone elses prescription, especially while pregnant. Does your ob have an after hours number?
383138 tn?1314167773 wants to do a lidocaine IV infusion, he says IV infusion of lidocaine is different than the dental injection. My cardiologist says I can't have lidocaine at all, due to my past severe heart reaction to it, but my pain dr. thinks it will be OK and has scheduled me for infusion for pain relief for this Friday. I dont know what to do, so any info on the lidocaine and any contraidictions with heart arrhythmias would be helpful. Thankyou.
673999 tn?1226935279 I had the same trouble with the spasms being so bad that the cathether would shoot right back out while trying to instill the cocktails. The Lidocaine Urojets were a lifesaver! They relieved the painful spasms within a few minutes, and sometimes the pain was held at bay for 30 minutes to even a few hours. Could not have gotten by without them. They are manufacturted by IM (International Medical).
Avatar m tn my co-worker gave me a new 10ml bottle of lidocaine, he uses it to give himself stitches. advice as to where to put the needle (i got from cvs insulin 31g-8mm),what to expect ie: will it burn- how long b4 its numb, and if i split the nail will it grow back? any advice will help..
Avatar f tn If the wisdom tooth is already through they can most likely take it out! They only need the anesthesia for the teeth that haven't yet broken through! If they can't take it out I'm sure they could prescribe liquid lidocaine, idk if it's safe or not, but you don't swallow it so I don't see why not. But Tylenol and maybe sucking on ice might help sort of numb it.
419964 tn?1333301906 ve had lots of dental work done while pregnant. Most dentists should have a suit which they lay over you while your pregnant if you need an xray which is perfectly safe!
Avatar f tn My wife pregnant and i would like to use delay spray, could that harm the baby
Avatar f tn Yes solarcaine is fine to use while pregnant
Avatar n tn Re: Lidocaine Enemas. I am warning everyone to be careful. My brother just died 3/31/12 from a lidocaine enema. He was only 28. (Lidocaine Intoxication) Lidocaine in liquid form. I don't want anyone elses loved ones to die like this. I hope everyone will be careful when dealing w/lidocaine. it is a dangerous substance when not used properly.
Avatar f tn There are no contraindications for using lidocaine for the purpose described. The only danger is that lidocaine completely anesthetizes tissue, which is why you can cut or suture an area treated by lidocaine. Thus it is possible to cause a tear or injury that would not be noticed until the lidocaine wore off. In the case of normal intercourse, this should not be a problem.
Avatar m tn In a simple dental procedure, I had what I can only describe as a seizure after getting what was supposed to be lidocaine and epinephrine injection. The area never got numb, and the pain from the point of the needle each time they attempted to inject me was painful. I was taken to the ER and released after 8 hours with no explanation. I read that lidocaine can cause a seizure. I have had injections many times with no problem. What could have gone wrong?
Avatar n tn After the lauging gas and in the process of receiving 2.0cc of 2% lidocaine(she weighs approx. 45 pounds), she had an immediate seizure. According to the dental notes, her oxygen saturation were never under 97% and she took approx. 1 1/2 hours to become coherent. She essentially slept through the ER visit (2 hours). The ER doctor said that the seizure was caused by the lidocaine(no MRI or CAT) and she has had no discernable after effects.
306455 tn?1288862071 lotsatrout...good idea...you ought to get a patent....lidocaine suit...i like that!!! ...My educated guess says it is not addictive!!!...and we know where my educated guesses have gotten me before!!!
Avatar f tn Hi, 2 nights ago I was wiping after urinating & had such severe pain I jumped & trembled. I felt the area and on the inside of the labia majora I had a bright red nodule the size of a pea. I got a mirror & looked and lightly felt it. It was solid & movable under the skin but the pain was insane. It woke me up twice & I ended up putting the topical lidocaine for my chemo port just to get some rest. Well, this morning it hurt even worse, any movement & instant pain.
1425608 tn?1320894142 He said I probably have IC and pedundal neuropathy, and before I knew what was going on, the doc jammed a straight catheter into my urethra and injected a mixture of heparin and lidocaine into my bladder. He said it would help ease/numb the pain and wants me to come back once a week for 6 weeks to have this done.
Avatar f tn Look at the ingredients on the bottle. Benzocaine is mostly made up of lidocaine -a numbing agent in no way related to cocaine. You are more likely to test positive for THC (pot) from using motrin.
Avatar n tn I am a 25 year old female and I had a seizure while having dental work done about 3 weeks ago. I had been given lidocaine and nitrous oxide. Following the appointment, I went to a neurologist and had a CT scan and an MRI done. Both showed no brain abnormalities. I had eclampsia 4 years ago and had seizures which resulted in the early delivery of my child. Aside from my seizures 4 years ago, I had no previous history of seizure disorder.
Avatar f tn I had 1 root canal while pregnant. I got normal numbing meds. You just can't have certain ones in certain weeks of pregnancy. But I'm sure the well schedule around that.
