Topic: 3rd Time is the Charm !!!
After 2 cancelled surgery dates it looks like Monday 10/11/10  will be a success. (I hope).  Rather not go back over the past and still a little nervous about something going wrong but  I am starting to believe it will  really happen.  Scheduled for Monday at Mercy Hospital w/ Dr. Garber.  All day I've been thinking about all the things I will do once I drop some weight and feel up to it.  Things as simple as go for a walk in the park, play with my nephews and wear clothes I like rather then, what fits!  I has been over 1 year since I've started this journey.  I pray  very thing goes as planned, Dr. Garber made sure I understand there is a possibility he will go in and not be able to do the By-pass due to prior surgeries, but I am thinking positive. Looking foward to posting about how well everything went. 
Wish me Luck,
Eileen

 I have Fidelis too, and according to the surgeons office I chose to go with after I go on Friday I will have met all of Fidelis' requirements. So, then it will be submitted & I should hear from them within 2 weeks (the wait time I got from my handbook, but I was also told the same wait time for my knee surgery approval and got that within 24 hours.) I know when I called Fidelis it was like pulling teeth as well, that's why I asked around too.
