Your concern: is understandable , Surgeon himself feel same way if is other side of table ! GB surgery is one of the most commonly performed procedure , considered as low risk procedure. Before the surgery your anesthesiologist will see you during that time will alleviate your fear. Speak to the people who had it done.
