tizv123 23 Posted February 19, 2017 My surgery is 4 March and I am having some serious anxiety...I am also terrified of IVs. Hoping they can give me something before the IV.....but oh my god this anxiety about the surgery and Mexico.....I don't know which or if it both.....hope I don't back out... 2 Hollyhock and libertylady49 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_Kate_ 2,224 Posted February 19, 2017 I am hopless with IV's so I asked for medication prior to going into the pre-op room. They gave me a little gas too and I was out before they put the line in. You could check before hand if they could do this for you too Kate 2 tizv123 and Hollyhock reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pinkbunies 359 Posted February 19, 2017 Ask your doctor for Xanax. Go through with the surgery no matter what. It'll be the best thing you ever do. 2 collins4985 and tizv123 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
libertylady49 16 Posted February 20, 2017 I haven't had surgery yet but you should be premedicated to relax. I'll pray for good outcome... 1 tizv123 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
