Answer: Okay after you have been cleared If there is a treatable cause, it needs to be found and treated first .Once there are no further tests or treatments needed, your regular doctor PCP or hematologist can give you medical clearance for an elective procedure .Always let your surgeon know about any medical condition you have or have had.
