Rochester is a long trip for me. First, across the Pacific to from Australia to Los Angeles, then to Chicago. Chicago airport is huge, and a long walk in a hurry from one section to another - having come in on a "regular" 737, but the short trip from Chicago to Rochester is on American Eagle, who fly these little 50-odd seater commuter planes to and from small towns all over the USA.
I can tell very quickly that I'm in the midwest: the flight attendant is fiftysomething, with big blond hair, and a smile that would need to be surgically removed. She's from "round these parts", and is based in Chicago and does these little flights back and forth all day. Someone once told me - always be concerned about a veteran private (in the army): if they were any good, then by that age they would either be a general, or dead!
For a small regional airport, it takes quite a while to get my luggage. The shuttle bus takes a bunch of us around the local hotels, and the driver has an old-fashioned courtesy that's refreshing. My hotel is one of several connected via a superb subway system to all of the Mayo clinic and associated hospitals.

Best of luck with the process. I just had my fourth EMG/NCS yesterday, first one in a full year, and had MMN only confirmed more, now with leg involvement. Currently at 2.2 g/kg/month of IVIg split bimonthly. It's really a maintenance therapy and degeneration still occurs. Currently 21 years of age and started IVIg in March. Definitely functional with regard to daily living, not so much for typing and writing and intense or repetitive physical tasks.
