let me reintroduce myself

Last August I was 12 days away from my surgery date. I had started my liquid pre-op diet and I was ready for this new chapter in my life. My pre-op labwork came back abnormal and so I had to reschedule my surgery and go see my primary doctor. It turned out that I had mono. I had been feeling really tired but I chalked it up to a busy work schedule, teenage children, and perimenopause. The tiredness got worse and the surgery got postponed indefinitely. Finally, here I am almost a year later and I have been cleared by my hematologist for surgery. I left a message with my surgeon's office (I've kept contact with them every couple of months throughout the ordeal) telling them I had been cleared and they would be receiving the documentation from my hematologist. So. What happens now? Will I have to go through the entire process all over again or am I still good to go because I am within a year of getting approval from my insurance? Or was it all negated when it became the new year in January? I understand that I will need all the pre-op labwork again and another EKG. Has anybody had this happen to them? Will I have to go through the psych eval again and the three month supervised diet again?
