Sorry, to hear about your situation and believe me, I know how you feel. I’ve been dealing with chronic muscle pain (everywhere) and daily headaches, plus osteoarthritis in back and hips, for 15 years now. One word of advice. If you want to go to Mayo, do your homework first, and get a doctor’s referral. Or multiple doctor referrals. I recently tried to set up a first appointment there; everyone was very nice and I spent hours going thru the preliminary questionnaires, then a week later, they told me they were denying my request because they have too many patients and determined they can’t help. I’m not trying to be negative, but if I knew that was even a possibility, I would have approached Mayo in an entirely different way. I wish you all the best and hoe you’re able to find some relief. BD
