anyone feel more burning/numbness when sitting

Hi Rachel, do you have any idea at all about how I would apply to be seen at Mayo since I have so many specialists now and they all say that I am a complicated patient? I wouldn't know where to begin! I think neuro and rheum may be the most important?? I have thought about it so often over the years and family members have tried to encourage me to go over the years but I don't know what they would do with me either! I would appreciate your thoughts on this very much. Take care, Sunny. 😊

Hello @sunnyflower. John has provided the starting point and info for you. I recommend having your most hands on , knowledgable Drs who are very involved in your health be the ones to refer you. My experience being referred by my Drs. was that I had been diagnosed already with things Mayo felt I could be treated for by my local Drs. Possibly I was no great mystery and apparently they felt they could not help. Or were too busy to take me on. Perhaps your multiple diagnosis and unique diseases will draw attention for treatment. You've got nothing to lose! Go for it!!
Many well wishes to you,
Rachel

Hi @sunnyflower, Have you thought about asking one of your specialists/doctors for a referral to Mayo Clinic? You can also call and self refer for an appointment. If you would like to seek help from Mayo Clinic, contact one of the appointment offices. The contact information for Minnesota, Arizona and Florida can be found here http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63.
