Please..........Was this normal?!
Question:
Please..........Was this normal?
A couple weeks ago i had some fillings put in and they put me on nitrous oxide for the first time. After about 30 seconds of breathing it in i felt very lighheaded, enought to feel like i was going to faint. Is that normal? What are the normal feelings you get while using nitrous oxide?
Answers:
Yes that is normal. The machines do not allow any less than 30% oxygen which is higher than the 21% in the air we breathe. The nitrous relaxes you and has a euphoric effect. Some people don't like the feeling or it scares them and it won't have the relaxing effect. At the end however, you need to breathe 100% oxygen for a minute or so or you could pass out when you get up.
