Does anyone else find operations worrying?!


Question: Does anyone else find operations worrying?
I am going in to hospital for a hernia operation. The surgeon told me it is a routine operation and there is nothing to worry about. I am concerned as a few years ago, my uncle had a routine operation and got an infection, which killed him. I am also concerned about things like waking up in the middle of the operation, being in pain after, being ill because of the anaesthetic etc. Should I worry or is it straight forward?

Answers:

I'm sure most people worry when facing an operation, but just remember the large number that surgeons perform, and how few have problems
