I have had no feeling from my waist down and my shoulder down my arm. We have been to numerous hospitals and drs. Everyone says it's in my head and I'm lying when I'm not. This would be out last option. I have had numerous seizures and headaches. I have had so many tests done too. No dr wants to listen either. Would the mayo clinic in Minnesota be able to help? My neurologist has pretty much given up because he can't find answers.

There is no way to predict if Mayo can help you with your medical problems. If you are not satisfied with your current medical team, it is worth investigating a trip to Mayo.

Not everyone who requests an appointment is accepted, there are more requests for appointments then available appointments.

To start process, see following web site about how to request an appointment.

@gokartracer9706, I agree with @roch. You can self-refer or ask your neurologist to make a referral for you. Here's where to get started http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63
