Pregnancy Info HOME

I did ask this on a different post, but I really want to know if anyone has ever been in this situation. I am having my first child by elective c section. I suffer from panic attacks and asthma. I am NOT afraid of pain. However I KNOW I will suffer from panic attacks as I get near the time of the c section. I want to ask for general anesthesia as this will keep me from panicking. When I have anxiety attacts my blood pressure drops so far down I turn white and freezing cold, I start sweating, and usually pass out. I do not know why I get these, but it is just a thing that happens. I had to stop my medication when I became pregnant, so it is getting very hard. I cant even think of delivery with out that fear creeping up the back of my neck. Everyone thinks its because OF THE PAIN, BUT AGAIN IT IS NOT. I suffer from severe back and neck pain, and have had minor surgery before, and as long as I don't know what is going on, I am fine. The pain afterwards is not my concern. Anyone ever feel like this.
