HOW DO YOU STOP THE PRE-OP JITTERS?

Okay, my surgery is scheduled for the 5th of December and I am having major jitters. One minuter I am scared out of my mind (it doesn't help that I went on a website and read a story about a woman dying of malnutrition from this surgery) I keep thinking I am having this surgery to live, not to die, so then I start thinking maybe I should just stay the way that I am, because I really don't have any REAL problems (okay, so this is me bargaining with myself:)). But then I think what if I make it through alright and it is everything that I dreamed of. Please help me put my mind to rest. Thanks.
