Good evening @wascaly. Oh, my dear, I understand your disappointment about the Mayo admission issue. I had to try three times myself. Here is my sequence in case you might find it helpful.
1st.....I applied in writing by myself.
2nd...My PCP sent a referral.
3rd....I followed the process used for an email application. The admissions office representative replied within the hours listed and chatted about my issues. During that conversation, I stated that I was looking for a consultation about my osteoporosis side effects and inability to handle the increasing lack of bone building. That seemed to work for me.
4th....My new endocrinologist was very helpful and made referrals for exercises and additional tests.

Here is another option. Mayo Clinic has a partnership relationship with a number of other hospitals. That means that a staff member at Mayo will review your test results and daily life concerns with your PCP or other medical professional.

If you wish to make a new admission attempt, let me know, and I will ensure that you have the correct documents.

May you be safe, protected, and free of inner and outer harm.
Chris

Thank you so much for your suggestions. Actually, I’d given up, but now with the procedures you mentioned, I have hope.
To be honest, I’m also dealing with my husband who’s sinking fast with Alzheimer’s. We have recently moved to be closer to my son for support. There is a huge VA service center where my son lives so I’m also trying to juggle my husband’s care with my own. We’re currently staying with him and his family until our house sells. As much as I appreciate their hospitality, it’s just not an ideal situation, as you can guess.
Again, I thank you for responding to my post, as well as the steps you took to finally be seen. I wish you good health and, to be sure, I will try the procedures you shared.
Thank you!
