anxiety disorder mayo clinic

I am over the moon excited that DH got a 5-10 day appointment at Mayo Clinic - Dec. 10. Anyone have any experiences on what to expect etc?

Has anyone from the MS forum ever seek treatment for their MS at the Mayo Clinic? If so, how was your as your experience with physicians from the clinic? I am considering driving up to Mayo at some point if my neurologist in town can't definatively diagnosis me.

I have just made an appointment for a full work up at the Mayo Clinic, does anyone know the tests involved and how much they charge? Thank you!

Some here on the board are not real pleased with the Mayo clinic. It seems they have their own set of standards to give out a dx of MS. I personally know nothing about them and wish you the best....hoping for that answer.

Has anybody here been to the neurology clinic at the Mayo or in their inpatient pain treatment program?

I've not been to the Jacksonville Mayo or the MS clinic in Houston, I'm sorry about that. I have heard a lot of good things about the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas and Dr. Elliot Frohman who works there. I'm sure if you google his name you can find out much more than I can tell you about, here.

A physician at Mayo Clinic said the surgery is rarely performed on someone with diagnosed anxiety disorder. Is there a clinical practice guideline that states this, or is it a known fact among Gastroenterologists?

My new neuro wants to refer me to Mayo Clinic. She thinks this is definitely an autoimmune disease but doesn't think that it is MS due to the intermittent low grade fevers for no apparent reason. I haven't discounted the fact that more than one thing may be going on. Anyway, saw that JH has the big autoimmune disorder research center and wondered, if this is what we're looking at, if it might be the better place to go. Any comments??? Thanks!

Truthfully, I've heard one of the best MS Clinics in the US is the Mellen Center at Cleveland Clinic. You might try checking out http://www.mscare.org They list all the clinics available, etc. My neuro said the clinic at Cincinatti isn't that great but thinks Cleveland Clinic is really good. I've never heard of the Mayo Clinic being highly rated for MS, but more for heart desease.

They were surprised to find a small bone tumor which is very rare and certainly not their specialty. Their in house pathology lab classified it as benign but sent it to Mayo Clinic for a second opinion. My doctor has been horrible with communication. It’s been two weeks and I’ve heard nothing. Now I’ve just learned my doctor is on vacation so the soonest I would hear anything is the end of next week.

I think that my digestive system got tight and has problems from the SIBO I had last year that was diagnosed by the mayo clinic. The Mayo Clinic says the SIBO is gone, but has most likely left me with these other problems that I am seeking treatment from the Mayo Clinic right now. Hope these new treatments work for me and hope this information might help you.

And again today, the shake happened. The nurses at the hospital seemed very concerned and it worried me. My health anxiety has now returned and I’ve convinced myself I have some type of terrible disorder and it’s going to be permanent or something… I can’t really go to a clinic because of my newborn.. any guidance?

I decided that I should travel to the United States and hopefully get a diagnosis. I know that Mayo clinic and Cleveland clinic have a good dysautonomia clinics but I don't know which one should I choose so I would appreciate any suggestions !!! Also I know healthcare in the US is so expensive and since I don't have insurance I wonder how much such a visit to one of those hospitals will roughly cost ?I know it's hard to tell but I'm asking for a roughly cost. Thanks.

OK, I felt sorry for you so I looked it up....Here's the info. coming from the Mayo Clinic - a highly respected medical center. _______________________________________________________________________- Mayo Clinic neurologist Jerry Swanson, M.D., and colleagues answer select questions from readers. Answer The symptoms you describe are similar to those of an uncommon disorder that doctors refer to as exploding head syndrome. Although anxiety-provoking, exploding head syndrome is harmless.

Hi, the Mayo Clinic has a good section about geographic tongue, including some of the treatments for it. Here is what it says about risk factors that might cause it: ____________ Studies of factors that may be associated with an increased risk of geographic tongue have produced mixed results.

My sister was diagnosed with MS (finally) after going to the Mayo Clinic. She had been trying for 2-3 years to find out what was wrong. Her doctors in Kansas were perplexed. She feels like they were not sympathetic to her pains, treating her like she was making it up. She said the doctors at Mayo Clinic are proud to the point of being pompous-but they know their stuff, so they have the right to be that way. She thinks I have MS from my symptoms, because my symptoms are so similar to hers.

Something is attacking his system and finally his nephrologist has referred him to the Mayo Clinic here in Scottsdale. His test for Sjodger's syndome (sorry, wrong spelling) came back neg too since one of his docs thought it could be this. He is a wreck over this and is frustrated. Lupus test also came back neg. Can anyone comment on this? Thank you.

However that does not preclude therapeutic trials as have been recommended to you at the Mayo Clinic. You might also want to ask your Mayo Allergist if there are yet other drug therapy possibilities that might be worth a trial.

You might want to gather up all the tests and head for the Mayo Clinic, which gets unusual and difficult problems from all over the world. One thing I would check if you have not done so is an EEG to rule out atypical seizure disorder and consider atypical visual migraine.

Maybe I was too harsh about Mayo. To be fair to Mayo Clinic, I do think they do have some very good doctors there, maybe it's just hard to get a neuro diagnosis - as it seems to be most other places in this country - so what's new? I did really think the Mayo radiologist who looked at my films was excellent - he found a couple of things the original outside radiologist did not notice such as brain mass loss.

I have had 100's of tests and been to mayo clinic, All the Docs feel that it's anxiety and depression and sleep deprivation. These are my symptoms: Can't fall asleep at night for a year, Body especially hands are shaking from that, back is burning up and sweating, Have the chills, and I have left sided tension headache. I'm starting Lexapro 5mg tomorrow and they feel this will reset my sleep cycle, and help me out tremendously. What do you guys think?
