So I will be having surgery in next month or so (just waiting for a date now) but I had my pre op assessment yesterday and they took bloods, is this normal?

Also how can I stop the anxiety of thinking they are going to find something bad? I'm convinced they are going to call me soon saying they have found some type of cancer or white blood cells are low or something.
