@lynnkay1956 that's a lot of driving. What advice would you give to people who drive so far for treatment? How to prepare for the trip and especially dealing with the fatigue and side effects after get treatment. Did you often stay overnight in Rochester?

the town of Rochester is all about services to Mayo patients-hotel shuttles, meal delivery—all very supportive. Mayo also has some reasonable housing options for folks doing treatment. Do what makes you feel best. I stay at a nearby hotel as my follow up visits usually take 3-4 days and I have to fly there and back home. Initially I was living in Alaska, now 5 years later I am in South Carolina. Just take care of yourself to feel your best.
