Yes, tell all!: You wish to have the best outcome from surgery and the best opinion from the person you are trusting your care to- the surgeon can't give you the best opinion without knowing all the details. The same applies to the anaesthesiologist who treats you. Feel free to add your opinions and desires. Most physicians are trying to do the things they do to benefit you.
