BCC on cheek. EXTREME anxiety. Canceled twice. How to get through while awake?!!!
I originally went for the mohs surgery with 4 x.5 Ativans had the most severe panic attack and had to leave ! then I saw a plastic surgeon who swore he would give me 3mg Ativan and only gave me 1 mg I went through the local anesthesia but as soon as I get on the table I couldn't do it! the 1mg wasn't enough. has anybody gone through this gotten through this they just won't give you general anesthesia for this you have to be awake with a knife coming at your face. I've had this for about a year and it just continues to grow I feel like I might not ever have it removed because of my anxiety. 😔 and the doctor says oh you'll be fine you'll get through it that doesn't help at all!
