@naiviv, fellow member @sue6175 is right. Contact your Mayo care team. They will be able to direct you.
@seaspray, that does not sound like a good situation. I'm sorry that you did not receive a message via Mayo's patient portal. I recommend sending a message to oncology to find out more before your appointment this week.

@colleenyoung - LOL, I did contact my oncology team! This is their response:
Mayo Clinic will invite patients in waves based on vaccine availability and patient risk factors for severe COVID-19 infection. Patient selection criteria follows the guidelines that have been given by the State of Florida. Mayo Clinic will notify patients when they are eligible to receive the vaccine via the patient portal or regular mail.
I guess having stage iv cancer and recent brain radiation does not qualify me to be in the first wave!
