Brief Answer:
NO!!!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

You would need to be put to sleep. If you are not put to sleep, the pain would be unbearable and no surgeon would accept to operate on a patient without proper anesthesia. However, anesthesia is very safe and there should be no reasons for you to decline this.

I hope this addresses your query fully. I wish you well. Feel free to follow up with me if need be.
