Pericarditis/Constrictive Pericarditis

My husband has been diagnosed with pericardial constrictions due to a calcified pericardium. We are in SW FL but have been told by several cardiologist and a cardio thoracic surgeon Mayo is our answer. My husband is not yet 64 and very healthy otherwise. Our appointment is not until December 16th. His quality of life is poor right now due to low heart function. Any suggestions on how to expedite our appointment. Thanks.

Hello @bees1961 and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. That is wonderful news that you have made the decision to seek care at Mayo Clinic in FL for your husband and have an appointment. I can appreciate that your husband's appointment date feels far off.
Did you ask about your options for being called if there is a cancellation?
