My husband had Cervical Myolopathy discovered at Mayo after many fruitless visits to doctors here. He had surgery placing rods and screws in his neck. The entire procedure and experience was flawless. I agree with everything that has been said. If you end up staying at the Courtyard Marriott on the grounds but not attached to the hospital, they will ride you over and pick you up. It is about a two minute ride. The only thing I would add is try to get your first appointment on Monday. Other appointments and test will be scheduled and it's nice to try to get it all done in one trip. Be prepared to stay several days. We had BC/BS Fed also. I can't sing their praises enough. My husband also had an incurable neurological disease. His neurologist was there also
