I'm having a GA tomorrow morning. Absolutely terrified of needles and already having panic attacks thinking about the cannula.
Would they be able to give me something before they put the cannula in? Maybe Valium or something similar to calm me down? I have to arrive at the ward at 7.30am and have no idea how long I'll be waiting. The thought of sitting there panicking, is making me panic now.
Does anyone know if it's worth me askin? Or what the likelihood is that they'll give me something?
TIA

Any anaesthetists around? or theatre nurses maybe?
