worried-high blood pressure, stress test resutls ?

I have a supra cervical labroscopic (davinci) hysterectomy scheduled. This might turn into an abdominal hysterectomy during the surgery. Needless to say, I am pretty scared, especially since the date is coming closer.
I just found out, that I have high blood pressure (especially when stressed, and during excercise). I have chest pains in the heart area since years. My Gyn ordered a stress test ( with radioactive injection). The stress test went well as far as heart function, but my blood pressure went up way high, during the nuclear testing it appeared that my heart did not receive enough blood in one area. The doctors think that this might be a false positive (have a lot of breast tissue in the way). I went to get a second opinion from a cardiologist who did agree with the intial acessment. Now, I might need blood pressure meds ( possible before the surgery). The cardiologist thought that I do not need to worry about a higher risk at the time of the surgery, but told me that he could of cause not guaranty anything. Somehow, this did not put me at ease. He told me that he would follow up in June after my surgery. Since the stress test/nuclear results were not completely conclusive, he suggested a possible heart cathederization (but did not think that I absolutely need to have this done), but did not feel it necessary before the surgery.
Did anyone here have the surgery done with blood pressure issues/ heart problems?
Now, I am so scared, I think I have chest pains all the time (seems like a case of the nevers).

I did. I have been hypertensive for years, and still am. My doc had me stop my medication the day before surgery, then they restarted it the day after and I had no ill effects. Talk with your doctor about your nerves. They will work with the situation. I also have a heart murmur, but neither of those were issues during my surgery. Both the surgeon and anesthesiologist were aware and they worked together. Again, talk to your doctor about it, and talk about ways that you can stay calm. Re-focus your thoughts with music or meditation or short walks. It can really work in addition to any support your doctor can give. I wish you well, and please know that you're in my thoughts--
