You too, huh? When I had my root canal in 1983/84, I always fell asleep too, my appointments were after school, I had my own car so I drove it to school then the dentist. Basically I just sat there immobile, can't take or do anything but listen to the radio to music so out I went. Actually when the dentist had to shift my head a bit, I was kind of miffed that he woke me up. I could look out the window but my glasses had to come off and I'm terminally nearsighted so I just went inward in my mind.
Same with MRI's, I had a few of those and when they had to do my neck for a car accident, I had to remain still not move my mouth or anything, I could not even talk. I know I could tap once for yes or two for no with my hand, bu that's the only communications I could do. At least with the chest, back and so on, I can talk.
