Hellow,
Hey you shouldn't be fearing needles,I have seen small kids taking needle pricks with ease,you shouldn't have even little bit of pain during surgery that's what for your anesthesia is,many a surgeons give medicines before surgery to keep you calm and get relaxed you need not worry about it,
Its just a prick for mere seconds discuss with surgeon and be brave.
Best of luck
