Hi @deejojo0811, it’s completely normal to feel anxious before surgery. I would advise to have a look through the online community for posts from those with experience these surgeries, I will see if I can link any I find on here however you should find some by browsing through past discussions in the Living with arthritis section.
I will attach a couple of links on surgery-related topics which may or may not be helpful. Wishing you all the best for your surgery on the 30th, please do keep us all updated!
