@da69 Anytime we are visiting a new facility, it can be daunting, that's for sure! Here is a link to a support group here for visiting Mayo Clinic. Why don't you wander through the different threads and see what information will help in your own situation? You should be able to contact the campus where you will be, and ask them how long you should expect to be there; a couple of days, of what. Seeing that you already have an appointment, I believe using this link will get you to the people who can give you some info for how long you'll be there http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63

I agree with @frouke that some of our medications can become less effective over a long course of time. That had happened to me, also.

Thank you...I have been on a bunch of new meds based on a genesight test and nothing has worked...TMS did nothing for me either.
None of the new meds i have tried worked.
They had no effect on me one way or another except Vraylar which gave me Akethesia.
Klonopin is the only thing that works for my daily anxiety which i take .05 at bedtime
and one during the day as needed which is becoming more frequent and some days i suffer
through it and don't take as needed because i am scared of becoming addicted.
Somedays it's so bad i have no choice and have to take a extra one during the day.
1mg a day is the most i have ever takin and it just barely takes the edge off.
The shaking and tremors are out of control combined with my other symptoms
and its to the point where im exsisting and not living.
