What to expect at Mayo Clinic's Post COVID Treatment Program?
I just finished a week full of appointments in Mayo. I am post covid 10 months with pulmonary "Covid" fibrosis. I am scheduled for 2 Post COVID Treatment Programs this week and am unsure what they will entail? Does anyone know?
Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Post-COVID Recovery & COVID-19 Support Group.
We received our call to hopefully get husband into post Covid clinic but after answering all questions were told no appointments avayand to call back in February 😥 Hope he’s better by then.
How frustrating to get that news! Did they have any suggestions for things you can do at home while waiting?

Hi Jodi, welcome to the group. I'm sorry to hear that recovery has been so slow. How are you feeling now? Have you been to a COVID recovery clinic?
Did you inquire about getting into the Virtual 12-Week Treatment Program? I wonder if that might be an option for your husband.

How is your husband doing today? What's his main symptom?
Good evening, thank you for the welcome. I'm ok. Worried about why I am feeling like this 2 months after. The burning and tingling sensation is unbearable at times. Not sure what to do. I worry is it a neurological issue? All labs are negative for other concerns. More tests? Meds? I just don't know.
Will check, wasn’t made aware of Virtual. He’s doing better but still on meds for anxiety and stress. So thankful cause was Covid and not his future mental health. Physically getting stronger.
How do I schedule my son for this clinic?
Good Evening,
Last week I was evaluated by a neurologist and referred to the Covid Clinic.
I now have an appointment scheduled for October.
I am about 450 miles away so I’m needing to know about how long I should plan on being in Rochester. What does this appointment consist of.
Thank You in advance!

I did this so you can connect with others who have been there. I'd also like to encourage members like @cavera @ldropps @remnant1 @baker00l @liz58 @jennifergillan03 to add their experiences to help you prepare, including how long you should be prepared to stay at Mayo Clinic your first visit.

My understanding is that when you first come to Mayo Clinic’s Post COVID 19 Care Clinic, you begin by meeting with a provider who completes a thorough evaluation, including discussing your medical history and current symptoms, and doing a physical examination. The information learned during the evaluation is used to help develop a personal treatment plan.
Baseballmama, what are you main post-COVID symptoms? What question would you like to ask fellow members?
Thank You! New to this connect thing:)
