@rasmataz49 I just filed an appointment request and they had someone call me. There is a process and insurance probably helps get in.

@rybren Good luck! Please update us as your journey progresses.

My experience at Mayo Clinic Neurology involved an extensive evaluation, including a detailed history and multiple tests across different departments—such as a painful EMG , hearing and heat studies, bloodwork, etc.

$$$$ later there was no clear cause identified for my idiopathic peripheral neuropathy. I was referred to a pain specialist who recommended starting gabapentin and gradually increasing the dose, which did not provide meaningful relief and the side effects outweighed any benefits. In short, I did not find the process helpful.”
