Hello @ch47 - You say what many others who live with chronic conditions say, "I just want my life back". The good news is that you can get your life back - it may look different than what you were accustomed to however, but Mayo Pain Rehab Center can definitely show you how to do it. I'm a prime example, I graduated the PRC two and a half years ago and it was one of the best things I'd ever done for myself and overall well-being. While my conditions and symptoms remain, they have lessened and are better managed from 4 perspectives:
1. Physically
2. Emotionally
3. Behaviorally
4. Chemically

Yes, insurance covers the program. I was covered by Medicare with an out-of-network supplement plan. I live in NY so I did incur the out of pocket expenses of travel, hotel and meals. I'm unsure of whether there are any comprehensive pain rehab programs near Augusta, GA. Have you googled or checked with your PCP?

Here's a helpful overview of the Mayo PRC program. It provides detail of what to expect:

Mayo Pain Rehab Center (PRC) - What's Your Experience?

Lots of homework! I want to congratulate you on giving up all meds except LDN. That's not always easy, and you are much further ahead of the game. What other questions may I answer for you? Do you feel that an all-inclusive rehabilitation approach would be beneficial?
