Anesthesia

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone. I don't post very much but I have a question and I need

some first-hand advice. My daughter Abbey is 4yrs. and she has Complex

I. The oral surgeon has suggested that she needs surgery to remove

excess gum tissue. (Leaving it there will cause problems when she

starts losing her baby teeth). She has been under anesthesia once

before (prior to her diagnosis) but she has a seizure disorder and I've

read that neurological issues can become more severe after anesthesia.

Has anyone dealt with this? I know we're going to have to do it

eventually - does age make a difference? Thanks for any help!

My son has been under anesthesia several times for dental work to MRI to the muscle biopsy and he has never had a problem afterwards. However how our children respond is different on a case by case basis. I hope everything goes well for you. If your doctor thinks that is safe and you trust your doctor then trust your faith.
