How do I make my PCP listen to me????

My refferal was deferred for more information La Vida Medical defferred me because they wanted to know if " Documentations that other correctable causes for morbid obeasity have been evaluated and treated or ruled out. They want to know if I have any existing drug or alcohol abuse problems or major psychiatric disorder? Then once they know that they will evaluate if I can see the surgeon for consulation only. Well I am not crazy and I dont do the drugs or alchol and I know everything that can be done has been done but they dont believe me they want to hear it from my PCP. I only have 45 days to get the information to them for reevaluation...my PCP is taking her dear sweet time! The referal was sent 5/11/05 and she still hasent gotten back to them!!!! I am getting really frustrated, I contact her nurse on a daily basis and she said she is trying...she is a very nice lady so I dont want to bug her but my doc doesnt seem to want to bother with my, any ideas??? HELP time is running out!! I only have 34 days left!!!
