When you have the surgery, are you put to sleep?

This may seem like a dumb/obvious answer question, but I was wondering, lapband surgery are you put to sleep? I just want to make sure, because I started watching a webcast of the surgery and it freaked me out, so I just want to make sure that I'm not going to feel any of that at all. :thumbup:

    Yes, you are under general anesthesia.

    Yeah I could NOT handle it if I was awake! I'm the guy that will pass out and fall on the floor just from seeing SOMEONE ELSE get stuck with a little needle.
