Guest guest Posted July 14, 2001 Report Share Posted July 14, 2001 Hello everyone. I am waiting for approval with United Health Care PPO. I have filled out all the nessessary forms and have had a physical and forwarded all my past medical forms to Dr. Booth in Mississippi.I guess my questions would be- is there anything else I can do to hurry this along any faster? This waiting is driving me crazy!! Has anyone had Dr. Booth and your opinions of him. Lap or open? And last but not least I am anemic and on iron pills. This is something that has always been a problem for me. I just found out they won't do the surgery if you are anemic. Is this true and has anyone else had this problem? Waiting impatiently in Illinois.....Leah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
