I'm about to have hernia repair surgery. I haven't been to the doctor but I'm pretty sure I have anxiety. Because my beats 100mph a lot. And it freaks me out. And I was wondering is anxiety a risk during being put under general anesthesia? I'm 21 years old.

Anxiety is no problem at all, just tell the anesthesiologist you are feeling anxious and he will give you something to calm you right down. Hernia repair is the most routine of surgeries, you have absolutely nothing to worry about.
