Alternatively you could do a "clean install" of 19.10 rather than an upgrade. But whatever you do go back to my earlier point above -- keep your current and previous data backups until you know things are working OK.

I know on my old system it takes me many hours to finish an OS upgrade because I have old hardware and I have to find the latest tricks to get the old scanner and printer and etc. working. That's the main reason I stick with LTS releases on it. At some point (soon?) I'll probably ditch the old CPU because nowadays 3Gb doesn't go so far. But it still works... 

Also, if the OP waits for 20.04, they can upgrade directly from 18.04. (and if they can stand the interim possible freezes, is likely the cleaner option)
