@yisabess, welcome. I added your question to the Blood Cancers & Disorders Support Group as well https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/blood-cancers-disorders/

While not hematology specific, you might appreciate the comments in these related discussions:

I'm also tagging members like @loribmt @johnra @5qdeletion @lisal64 @ckscckscoville @lindes who are hematology patients or Mayo FL patients or both to share their tips.

@yisabess, you are in good hands at Mayo Clinic. If you haven't already, please download the Mayo Clinic patient portal. You will see appointments start to appear. You will also receive a detailed Patient Appointment Guide with all the details of your appointments and what to do to prepare and what you can expect.

Have you downloaded the patient portal?

I was curious if it's typical that the doctor would run a bunch of tests and want me to come back the next or even stay there. I'm trying to plan for work and lodging
