Do you still feel like being at PRC a few years ago is still helping? What changed most by being there? If there is a thread about the program itself here on connect where others talk about having been there, can you post a link?

I called PRC. She sent an email with all the forms, links, portal. No wait list right now and I found a vrmo I could somewhat afford 10 minutes from Mayo. Some of the things I've read as complaints on reddit, I have no issues with. Not having to be detoxed simplifies things for me also as long as I don't have to attend lots of stuff that focuses on addiction. I did an inpatient pain unit way back in the 80s and relaxation, ot, pt, depression treatment, etc all helped me reset.

I have a psychologist whose specialty is chronic illness and pain, she works with my PCP and she thinks its a great idea. I'm waiting to hear from my chronic care nurse about sending records.

I need to do something. I know they don't diagnose but was told tho the spine clinic is not accepting new patients, the person running the program coyld probably get me in just for an opinion about my hip - did I damage my hip, is it part of my back? And I know they won't be trying to do something invasive! PT, distraction, adjusting, acceptance, etc is my goal. Getting oit of my house and living what I have left and having some sort of life again is my goal. Same as PRC. Being active from 8am to 5 will be the hardest at the start for sure. I wish there waa a nutrition component but not sure medicare would pay for that. Thanks, betty
