Insurance ok'd my surgery! Now what?...

After six months of eval and nutrition classes ect... my insurance said yes to surgery! I am thrilled! and scared! The surgeon is so busy that it will be the end of February. I have to lose ten pounds before then. Were any of you scared of complications? I am scared of pain, nausea, clots, leaks.. It is going to be the best thing i have ever done for my health. I have been diagnosed with Rheumatoid arthritis, High Blood Pressure, sleep Apnea, GERD, renewal of my depression all in the last year, on top of gaining sixty pounds while taking prednisone. Let the weight loss begin!! M
