Are you currently doing any treatment like meds,etc till you decide? I would encourage you to look into that as well. Also if you chose not to go to Mayo do you have a univeristy or teaching hospital near you?
Hi Daniella:

I live in the Orlando area, and Mayo is in Jacksonville (about 2.5 hours). Shands is a teaching hospital in Gainesville, which I have heard is good - but I don't know anyone who has been to either one... I'm hoping that at least one has a good neurology dept.

I had a EMG over a year ago ... (I thought it was carpel tunnel initially), but the EMG was normal. I've had several MRI's (brain, spine), and they were normal. I currently take Neurontin for the pain and I just started Seroquel to help me sleep.
