the last dentist who gave me novacaine ended up calling 911--that was 20 years ago. I get only carbocaine 3%, and have never had a problem. (it's the epinephrine in the novacaine and many others that starts the unpleasant response)

It is for you and your physician to rule out more serious illnesses; Please don't use this online forum as an alternative to getting responsible medical attention and being under the care of a physician for the duration of any unknown, suspected or dangerous vaso-vagal syndrome symptoms.
