Hello @angieleigh, it's nice to meet you. Thank you @jenniferhunter for the introduction. Angie, your words, "I’m so ready to heal my body and just want to give it what it needs" sound familiar to me. I was there too, at wits end with chronic pain and just wanting a plan, some sort of comprehensive approach to not only healing my body, but mind as well. Living with chronic conditions takes a full on approach in order to make the best of what life still has to offer.
It's really awesome that you have received a referral from Mayo for the BeST program to help with FND. I'm not familiar with BeST. Outside of it being a behavioral therapy shaping program, do you know if it includes a physical and chemical component?
I'm a graduate of the Mayo Pain Rehabilitation Center comprehensive program and would love to answer any questions you have about it. And yes, you are spot on, PRC is an intense 3 week experience. Don't be alarmed because it is also the most rewarding, world renowned rehab program available. I would be lost without it's support, teachings and direction. Here's a discussion about my journey with the PRC that might be helpful -

Please feel free to ask any questions. I'm here to help.
I'm curious, have you researched both rehab centers and compared the differences between what they offer? In what way do they overlap?
