Guest tearose Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 Ernie,Please go knowing loads of prayers and good wished go with you!Make sure you ask for the chance to ask followup questions BEFORE you leave so you are sure and satisfied with all you learn. It will be a lot to take in and you will have to process a lot of information, testing and diagnosing...also request copies of your files before leaving so you won't have to try going back and forth from home by mail.Pop on and tell us how you are doing. I will gladly offer anything I have learned while at Mayo (3 times) if it will help you get to the bottom of your situation. Have a safe journey, dress in tons of layers,warmest wishes,tearose Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maxine 0 Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 Ernie,My thoughts and prayers go out to you for a safe and fruitful trip to Mayo Clinic.Maxine :0) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
carinara 0 Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 Hi Ernie,my thoughts and prayers are with you!Whenever i see a specialist i take a recorder with me and record the whole appointment because there is alsways so much talking and explaining and taping the conversation takes much stress off me trying to remember all thats been said. Maybe you also want to ask the specialsts there if you are allowed to record the conversations. that way you can focus more on the questions.All the best and keep us postet.carinara Quote Link to post Share on other sites
