Demerol and Xanax before Lipo makes me scared - advice on what these medications will have me feeling like?

Nice531442
Hello! I would like to get the tumescent lipo done but my fear is of the Xanax and Demerol my doctor is going to give me beforehand. I have always been very scared of medications and this has halted my decision on moving forward with the procedure. I also do not want to be under anesthesia at any costs. Any advice on what this medication will have me feeling like and are patients usually ok and feeling good and comfortable? Have there been any patients that did not like being administered this?
