Default Terrified about having a lumbar puncture

I am suppose to have a lumbar puncture done on wednesday and am so afraid of having it done and what they might find. The neurologist is doing it because the lab work he has done came back normal and my symptoms have been progressing. I was diagnosed with Sensory-Motor Peripheral neuropathy in July after the findings on the nerve conduction study came back abnormal. Something is causing damage to the mylen covering and the axons. He has not done another NCS but no wants to go with the LP.
