I'm not sure that the decision will be up to you (other than cancelling out completely), because most surgeons like to perform their surgeries under certain conditions and won't deviate. I'm sure that mine, for instance, would never have done the procedure under a local (as I had requested), because he only works with the patient "out" and that's that. If I had been too sick on the day, he would just have rescheduled, not changed his method of anaesthetic. You can obviously contact them to see what they say, and should do, so that they know that you're unwell, but it will be him or her who will decide if they want to proceed or not, but you can always back out too, if you're worried.
