Denial because of hernia?

I was scheduled to get my lapband on March 25th of this year, and now I am worried that it might not happen. The patient coordinator just emailed me wanting to know if the 2 hernia surgeries I had were hietal or abdominal and if mesh was used either time. I won't know about the mesh until I can talk to the surgeons Monday, but am freaking out now. I was totally into the mindset of having this surgery and using it faithfully to help lose the weight. Please, if you have had a hernia with/without mesh being used, let me know. Thanks.
