Does Geodon And Celexa Has Any Side Effects And Does Bariatric Surgery Eliminates Diabetes?

I am on 60mg of Geodon and 40mg of Celexa. I suffer from clinical depression. Questions: A pharmacist told me that these two in combination are not good. Should I be concerned? I also, read that Geodon causes a runny nose and coughing. I have both. I must have a tissue with me all of the time and I am no longer able to sing, talk excessively, and have a cough spell all of the time. What would you advise me to do other than talk to my psychiatrist? I, also am type 2 diabetic, weigh 175, 66 yrs old. Read about the positive affects of bariatric surgery to help or eliminate diabetes. What are your thoughts?
