Hi there,
I know you've been through this already, but for other ladies about to go through it, I've had a few procedures and the surgeons were hesitant to give anything for nerves. They all asked, "Do you have a prescription for something? Did you bring any?"
My input is that if you want something for anxiety, ask for it ahead of time and then ask if it's okay to take just before you leave for the surgery center or right when you get there.
I know it can be frightening, and anti-anxiety meds are a huge help!
