I don’t think it’s possible to take anything because it could interfere with it, just guessing though.

It’s normal to be nervous, unless you think you will be physically reacting before they can put u under just deal with the anxiety until then.

You’ll be nervous in the minutes leading up to just before tbh

Honestly try to enjoy it. The part leading up to general anesthesia is really comfy. It's the rare occasion you are allowed to enjoy all the drugs they give you. The part right before you are put to sleep is one of the best feelings you'll experience lol.
