Hi Jennifer
Wow, you are a wealth of knowledge!!
My local PCP was not helpful with a specific referral. I reached out to my DIL who is an anesthesiologist at Ochsner in New Orleans. She suggested Dr Paul Celestre who is an ortho spine surgeon. I set up an appt with a few mouse clicks (unlike the numerous hoops Mayo puts one through), although to be fair I was already in their system. My appt is on February 3rd. I would have preferred a neurologist workup, but ultimately the same studies will be performed.
Again, thanks for your insight.
Doug
