@boltz7555 No problem, Robyn, I understand it all gets pretty confusing. Based on what you describe, and my personal experience, the best treatment for you is to wind down your nervous system, like explained in CSS video. Nerve medications naturally do help with nerve pain from neuropathy, but honestly the majority of symptom management and control comes from lifestyle change and learning how to calm the fires within both physically and mentally. I learned how to manage my wide range of pain and symptoms at Mayo's Pain Rehab Center (PRC). PRC treats fibro, migraine, neuropathy, POTS, post-COVID, etc...all things that become chronic. I'm not quite sure what being approved for triage, to get other treatment ideas means, but I hope it goes well and you find a positive path forward. You are early in your journey yet, but you are now prepared with addition knowledge, and knowledge is key for self-advocacy. I wish you the best! Will you keep me posted on how you progress in your journey and when you're able to get to Mayo?

@rwinney Hi Rachel, I’m not really sure what it means either, I called Mayo for an appointment and they told me to put “approved for triage” on the fax I sent of my medical records. 🙂 I will let you know how the Mayo visit goes. It’s not scheduled yet.
I appreciate you!
