Anxiety: You should have a medical evaluation to ensure that there’s nothing physical that’s causing your anxiety. If medical reasons for it are ruled out and it's not caused by anything physical, there are several meds that are beneficial; however, the combination of meds and therapy are often more effective than just meds or therapy alone. Please see your provider and discuss a medical eval. Good luck!

The surgery would: likely create more problems than it was designed to cure. There are exception in the medical literature, but the anxiety that engendered the surgery was soooooooooooooo extreme, and nothing else worked previously. Are you in that condition? I would resort to a psychiatrist first, then? http://www.psychologyproductsandservices.com/page2.html
