Phillippa.... only you can answer your questions about the surgery - it's such a personal choice. But just so you know... I'm 21 and my father is 69. Luckily he can still work and does, and works outside doing woodworking and such. Something to think about. You're really not that old. I know you have some medical problems that limit the things you can do, but I think that with therapy you really will be able to beat your anxiety so that you can keep living your life to the fullest. I really thought you were in your late 70s from the way you talk about yourself - cripes, a lot of people don't retire until 65! You've got a lot of life ahead of you, so do what will make you feel best and what you are most comfortable with.
