Nearly flaming killed me.. I saw the dentist Sarah last Tuesday.
I informed the dentist that my asthma had become Brittle, and I was on a lot of medication.
However, this wasn't taken into consideration when I was treated. The Dental Nurse stunk of heavy perfume, and the Nurse sprayed Ice Cold water into my mouth.
I struggled throughout to breathe. When I was allowed out of the chair. I struggled still.
I explained all of this to the dentist she said "you're ok now though, no harm done".
Ice cold water is a trigger for Brittle asthmatics to have an asthma attack, and it to progress to status (That is where, the person goes into an asthma attack, that they don't come out of, and have to be intubated). It can and will kill a lot of severe asthmatics. The staff should inform the person before they put ice cold water into someone's mouth.
I actually walked out of the surgery and had a severe asthma attack, that left me ill for days.
The staff doesn't know anything about asthma. The dentist was very blase.
I do hope the staff familarise themselveswith brittle asthma as next time you will certainly kill one of us. Then a lawsuit will be in their hands.
