Will the surgery help lower blood sugars enough to prevent diabetes?

I've been diagnosed with pre-diabetes, already have high blood pressure. Am wondering if the surgery will help "cure" either of these in the long run as the weight comes off. I'm looking for a long term solution here. I know diet/exercise is important. I guess in my mind I'm thinking if I can get a boost to get immediate results I could probably handle the rest on my own. I've been agonizing over this decision for three years now and health conditions keep getting worse. Obviously dieting on my own isn't working.
