Hello @christine777, horribly scary situtation. Makes it worse when it's your child. 🙁

Sounds like he needs a full work up at Mayo clinic. Has he been seen by a Mayo Clinic physician?

I was in the ER 4 times in a week then admitted to my local Hosp 3 times in a week the next 2 weeks for severe high blood pressure. The last time they kept me for 3 days without finding the root cause. The day after I was discharged from the hosp I was at my physical therapy appointment and my blood pressure was 300/208. I loaded up my duffle bag and drove 6 hours to Mayo Clinic. (Don't do that in a crisis, please) I had a mild heart attack while in route.

Point is: the definition of insanity - "doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results". I was not doing it again!! Was the best decision for me!!

Best wishes

Thank you for your info. Can we just drive to mayo clinic and will they see us. My son has been in hospital. 30 times at least in last 60 days. He needs dialysis every other dY will they do that there also if we just go. I will go anywhere if it helps my son. Please let me know. Thank you agAin.

Do they take most insurances my son is on state ins and Medicaid I think.
