That is pretty acceptable driving distance to Rochester. Did your ENT doctor try a referral to ENT at Mayo there? Sometimes that may create a better response than patient request. I have another suggestion that helped me with nerve healing. Research Lion’s Mane mushrooms, as there are studies that support their use in aiding nerve function and healing. I use a powdered product in my coffee every morning by Four Sigmatic. There are capsules at Real Mushrooms.com and I have even found the fresh shrooms at the grocery lately. They are tender and mild when lightly sautéed in butter.
