[QUOTE="Unbeliever, post: 435047, member: 30851"] I have a great deal of experience wih laser treatment. Intensive laser is almost a psychedelic experience and I have often thought it could have an unwanted impact on several groups . On occasion it has affected me so badly afterwards i have become disorientated to the extent I have been forced to go araight to bed on reaching home ad to stay there until the next day. Were you given any advice? Do you think a sedative might help? In extreme cases it is possible to have it under general anaesthetic. As you say it can be dangerous if you move at the wrong time during laser treatment. At the very least I would speak to whoever is administering the treatment and arrange for it to be halted if you feel yourself becoming uncomfortable. I have dome this. At one time I suffered from unexplained and unpredictable hypos. My chin would start to wobble without my knowledge as a symptom. Of course as the chin is on the chinreast this could be very dangerous at the wrong moment. Just make sure your concerns are known and understood. Its up to them to find soluions. If they don't then refuse to go ahead until you have spoken to someone in authority. Its not just something you have to undergo. It must be talllored to the individual or there is no point. They must have encountered similar problems in the past.. if you are anxious about it contact PALS at your hospital with your concerns.before your next visit. [/QUOTE]
