@boltz7555 Thank you so much for your kind words of appreciation. You are very welcome, I'm happy to help.
Girl, you speak my language. I was terrified to leave home, my family and my dog. I was physically terrified to fly, I used handicap access. I live in NY and went to Jacksonville, FL. My husband flew with me there and got me settled then flew back home after 3 days. I was alone, living in a hotel for 23 days, going to PRC M - F 7:30 - 4, and weaning off addictive meds. Weekends were lonely. It was tough stuff and no joke, truly the hardest thing I've ever done in my life. BUT, I did it! With the help, support, structure and encouragement from PRC, I prevailed. I realized PRC gave me the formula, but I wanted it and applied it. I fought, and was desperate for a better existence, just like you. The first step is bravery...
REHAB = Bravery with acceptance of doing things differently
You are definitely in good hands with your Mayo doctor. What a blessing that you have been lead in the right direction and are continuing to find underlying SFN cause and finalizing testing. It's so important to get to the bottom of things so you know the what and the why. Then, its all about how to live with the what and the why more productively.
Medicare covered my rehabilitation at Mayo. I just needed to pick up a higher cost supplement plan to cover out of network. It was worth a higher monthly premium in order to get PRC covered in full. Its about 52k out of pocket, last I knew 😱
Please let me know how your consult goes this week. One step at a time. You got this!
@rwinney Hi Rachel! Just a quick follow up after my consult with PRC. It went well, other than the fact I bawled the entire time lol! I don’t know why, the questions just really triggered my emotions! The poor doc! 🤦🏻♀️ Anyway, she obviously thinks I’d be a good fit for the program. I’m waiting to hear from the coordinator regarding schedule and insurance but it sounds like they’re currently booking in Oct, so a bit of a backlog. Hope you’re doing well! 🤗
