Thanks for the advice. I have a referral for autonomic neurology but the appointment desk says their waitlist is out till May! Originally the Mayo long COVID MD cancelled my referral as she likely assessed waiting this long would have adverse effects on my care. But the consult is reactivated. My local PT discharged me as "the symptoms worsened, and it would be inappropriate to get more PT and that I should get further MD care". My local neurologist has referred me to Mayo neurology. Having physical disability for that long can start a whole set of new problems in itself. I am out of work for 8 months now (on leave...unsure when that turns into no job) . I have 3 minor children that are suffering this disability with me. Is there a way someone can see what the clinical and socioeconomic implications of the 5 months wait list is to my case and help me get a more appropriate timely appointment?
