Hi, Lbee. Which clinic are you closest to? You need to also consider the stress that traveling has on a condition. May I ask where you live?

One of the MG experts at Mayo Rochester is Dr. Harper. Mayo can schedule an appt., a SFEMG, and blood tests ahead of time, if you have a referral. Make sure you wear a mask there if you go. The germs are everywhere!

I've heard good things about WU in St. Louis. I've actually been to Mayo Rochester. The differences in approaches tends to be that Mayo wants hard cold evidence of MG, which not everyone has. The Rochester area is geared toward an easy experience for out-of-town patients.

Anyone can draw labs where you live and send them to Mayo. Doctors do that all the time.

Whatever you decide, you have to trust your instincts about what is best for you. Only you know what that is!
