Worried about pre op testing affecting my surgery

I received a call from my doctor my labs came back positive for the h.pylori, underactive thyroid and also now being officially diabetic. I know i will have to clear up the h.pylori with antibiotics but also worried other results could effect my surgery?

Can't speak for the thyroid but I had surgery as a diabetic. Haven't had a metformin since surgery tho!

I go to my dr thursday for my 5th out of 6 month weight review so i have not been able to discuss my results with him. think i may just be getting more paranoid as my 6mo wait is coming to an end!! although i found it odd 2 days after my dr faxed my referral and labs they call to move my psych eval from mid sept. to tomorrow so they can send it into insurance. wonder if my new labs had anything to do with the change?

I've heard your A1C levels can have an effect dependent on what they are. I am not diabetic and do not know this for a fact. Someone else probably has more information.
