In reply to @rwinney…..I have multiple chronic pain issues including fibro and was accepted into the PRC 3 week program two years ago but broke my foot and could not attend. My foot is finally to the point that I could probably resubmit a request. However, as part of my fibro diagnosis (done at Mayo) it was directed to follow up with a sleep specialist; which I did and was prescribed medication that I believe is heaven sent. The PRC program has already stated they would want me to discontinue at least, this medication. I’m not into lying and will not do this, so I don’t know if this program would be the right choice for me. Everything else about the program, as laid out to me, sounded very helpful and hopeful in assisting me in managing my chronic pain.

Thank you for your reply. Well, dang! Of all the luck with a broken foot to deter you from getting to Mayo PRC.

I 100% encourage you to move forward with trying to go again. Please do not let your sleep medicine deter you from attending this program. PRC is voluntary, and is open to anyone who is willing, and has desire to make changes in order to progress in a healthy positive direction and take back control. What you take away from PRC is life changing and well worth the investment, but you've got to want it.

Here is a members post that I found helpful:

Are you willing to contact the front desk of PRC again? You are already in their system from your prior attempt to go, so you're that much closer.
