I live on the west coast and was ready to visit a Mayo hospital anywhere in the country that could help my wife with treatment. But I believe that no one can help and I should not spend a lot of money just to get the same results. Am I wrong?

Hi @surf362, welcome to Connect. You'll notice that I moved your message to an existing discussion about cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) in the Cerebrovascular group. I did this so that you can connect with other members talking about cerebral amyloid angiopathy and ask your question about treatment options and second opinions at Mayo Clinic.

A diagnosis of cerebral amyloid angiopathy is stressful and challenging. No doubt you will have questions about the diagnosis, treatment options and what will happen next. Experts at the Mayo Clinic can help you navigate your healthcare journey, answer your questions and guide you through the treatment plan. When you call at any of our 3 campuses, you will be offered an appointment within 48 hours http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63 Be sure to mention the Cerebrovascular access program.

I'm hoping @thomaslmason might have more insight about whether seeking an appointment at Mayo is worth the trip. When you call Mayo, they will review your wife's history and current status and care. It is Mayo Clinic's goal to provide the best care each patient needs, and not to have you incur additional costs for evaluation or travel if the care available is no different from what you’re already receiving.
