TV pitchman Billy Mays was terrified over the prospect of his third hip replacement surgery when he died suddenly in his sleep.
"He was taking Xanax to keep him calm and pain medication but he was terribly frightened and anxious about the upcoming surgery," said a source close to Mays.
Mays' surgery was scheduled for Monday (June 29). He flew to his home in Odessa, Fl, Saturday (June 27) from Philadelphia where he had shot yet another of his famous TV sales ads.
