My port was removed with just a local anesthetic. I was having complications with my heart; blood pressure running low, so they didn't want to give me the normal sedation.
It went very well. It took about a half an hour. The doctor kept reassuring me and asking me if I was OK. Very nice. I tried to go to a "quiet place" and before I knew it we were done. Like I said, he kept talking to me, so I never felt too worried. I can't remember any pain, so it couldn't have been too bad.
Good luck to you. You will be fine!
