General Anesthesia & Blood Clots? What Are My Chances?

Veronica2012
I am having a tummy tuck on 04/27 & I am terrified of general anesthesia and blood clots. I had a close family member die from this procedure and I am seriously having second thoughts as to whether I should put my body through this...any insights?
