My Experience at Mayo Clinic | What To Expect 

WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH! Finally answers and good days coming! Glad you put this up for others if they're going through it too!

It's so funny seeing how you and Alex have the same accent. It's almost like I'm hearing her talking!

I just have to say you have the BEST attitude. I've never seen someone in such a frustrating situation remain so calm and positive. You're an inspiration for other people who are struggling with illness. Thanks for being so awesome!

I know that anyone going through something like this would appreciate this video so much, when I was 17 I was diagnosed with a rare kidney disease, it was scary and hearing someone else going through it with such positivity would've helped me so much! I love you for sharing this and you are such an amazing person for wanting to help people who are struggling. I'm so happy it's not cancer and I'm very glad you are feeling better 💜 like you said, it's just a season. stay strong! Xx

So glad you have Emma Sue we love her too!

Okay. I absolutely love you. You are so BRAVE. I have been through a lot in my life, including a year of the bad chemo and I was not as strong and as faithful as you. Many blessings to you and I am SO glad you are feeling better! Please make more videos. I am subscribing now!

Keeping you in my prayers! I am so glad they have a plan for you! I understand what it is like to go through sickness and trying your best to see that this is just a season! I loved hearing you speak on your faith! Love you and take care Franceska!

Alex sent me! So happy you're feeling better. I think it's so important to empower people to keep looking for answers if they feel something isn't right. Although doctors are amazing and do so much for us, they don't always have the right answers. Thank you for sharing and being so vulnerable. I hope you continue to get better!

your faith, strength, and positivity during this difficult time is inspirational! stay strong, glad to see you are doing much better will continue to keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers! 💕

Thank you for sharing such a personal story. I was diagnosed with Leukemia 2 years ago next month. So I can relate to your frustrations and struggles. I had a very similar experience with a doctor in Tampa and I walked out of the consultation and never went back. I have the best oncology team and doctors here in Orlando, but the experience I had with the bone marrow transplant doctor was awful. I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy. Thank god you didn't give up and you got the answers you needed. You really do have to be your own advocate. I love that you have such high faith, I know thats what got me through and has kept me in remission; along with my supportive family and friends. You are blessed to have your family by your side. I started following you because I've been a long time subscriber to Alex's channel. I wish you all the best and I will keep you in my prayers❤️

Your strength is truly inspiring. You are a courageous young woman and I feel truly touched by this video. I am so glad to hear that your feeling better and that your perseverance was all worth it. You and Alex are such positive role models and this world needs more people like the both of you.

So sorry to hear you had to go through all that! You're so positive about it all and that's really great to see and I'm sure inspiring to others in the same situation. I have a lot of GI issues as well and went through similar things when I was younger, however what helped me most was finding a good holistic Doctor. All the medicine I was on was making me feel even sicker than I was, and taking a natural approach was what worked for me. I know it's not for everyone but maybe something to look into if you need to in the future. Glad to see you smiling and moving on from all this though!

What a great vlog. Thank you for sharing your journey! I loved all the motivation. So glad that you are feeling better!

Aww so sorry to hear about your experiences and so happy to hear you are feeling better!! I have been following your sister's channel for years now and I'm so glad I found yours. Hope you continue to feel better!! XO 😘

working for Mayo Clinic myself I am so happy you had a positive experience here! We truly stride to put the needs of our patients first. I'm so glad you are feeling better and had such a strong conviction to find out what was making you feel sick. Thank you for sharing your story and inspiring all of us to be advocates for our own happiness.

Wow I am so sorry you have been going through all of this! You are so strong & brave and there are so many people out there that will benefit from you sharing your experience. I'm so glad they were able to pinpoint the issue, and that you are feeling better now! I hope all of the best for you, and am sure many wonderful things will be coming your way! Much love! xoxo

I was in tears watching this video. I am so incredibly sorry you're going through this. I've been struggling with stomach issues as well and I understand all too well how frustrating it is. i really hope you start feeling better and THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing!!! You have no idea how much that means to your viewers. ♡♡♡♡

Your story will definitely help someone else who may be going through the same so it's awesome that you shared your journey and hopefully you will continue to update now and again about your journey back to health. So glad you have answers, Much love! xo

Thank you so much for sharing your story, you will help so many people who are going thru similar issues. I'm so happy to hear that you are feeling better. Keeping you in my prayers .

What a powerful testimony! I'm so glad you have found relief and a plan you can work with and you do not have cancer!!! Hugs to you.....( I'm from your sisters channel)

I just want to give you a huge hug!! You are so sincere and honest and raw. Thank God for your wonderful friend and your family. Glad you got some answers.

You're such a bright and positive soul. I want to send you and the entire family my love and prayers!

I love you for putting this up, because I was also going through some hard heath problems and it really is scary. But we love you and glad you feel better!

All I want to say is that having watched your videos, seen your posts, seen you in Alex's vlogs...you are strong. I am so glad that you are feeling better and I am so happy that you have been able to strengthen your faith. I don't think anyone would have known that you weren't feeling well. I will pray for your continued healing.

It's so refreshing to see other young Christians who aren't afraid to be open about His love. Especially in this society. I'm so glad that you got answers and that you are feeling better. God bless!

I'm so glad you are feeling better Frankie! I've been praying for you girl! ❤️

I'm so glad you are feeling better! I've had to be in and out of the hospital and dr appts before and it sucks so bad, I can relate to your situation and I'm so glad you are getting past it and moving forward! Can't wait to see what you have in store for us. I'm at work watching your video and I got really teary eyed when you started crying, definitely wishing and praying good health your way! Have a good weekend Frankie!

Thanks again for sharing your story. I watched this video in segments throughout today. You're amazing and you have an incredible support system 👍🏼 by the way I loved your makeup in the intro 😍

wow what a brave/important video you put out for everyone. def had me in tears... so so happy you are feeling better you are such a beautiful person inside and out and I appreciate you sharing your story!!! xoxox

I hope you know how special you are and how you are touching many people lives by your faithfulness, love, and by being humble. Continue to do what God has called you do. Much love to you.

Your strength is empowering, thank you so much for sharing this private journey❤️

This touched my heart. I kept thanking God every time you said it wasn't cancer. Looking forward to being a fan!

Thank you for sharing Frankie! I went through something very similar and was so beaten down and feeling a bit hopeless after no one could tell me what was going on. My solution was as simple as taking a probiotic, but I still felt very connected to this story. I love that you kept your faith throughout and I love term "everything is a season" you are so wise!

I am so glad you got some good news through all of this. You are so beautiful, strong and influential. Keep your beautiful spirits! I cant wait to see your channel grow! XOXO

Thank you so much for making this video! I found it through your sister Alex. I am scheduled to go the Mayo Clinic in Florida in August. This was so informative & helpful. Your outlook & faith in God is so inspiring! I pray you continue to do well!

You are amazing Frankie! Love you sis! This is your year and I know God has huge plans for you and your channel 💗

I know sharing something so personal is super tough. Happy you're feeling better and have such a great support system around you, it makes all the difference.

Sweet girl. First of all, I love that you are bold in your faith and know that this is just a season for you. And you're right, all He wants for us is LOVE. Praying for you to feel better with each passing day and for answers. So excited to see more of you here. I love your videos!

You are starting to become one of my fav people, beautiful inside and out😊😊 SO glad you are feeling better ❤️

Your strength and faith is inspiring. Thank you for sharing your story.

You are such a strong and positive person, so glad you are feeling better! God bless you!

Sending lots of love and prayers! Glad you are feeling better! I am a cancer nurse at mayo here in Rochester so I love hearing that you had a good experience:) You showed my work building for a second so I got really excited! So strange seeing the Gonda/ Mayo building, the Galleria, Thursdays on first and other Rochester landmarks on your video when I see them everyday at work! Its nice to see Rochester and Mayo through a different perspective.

You're so strong! So glad you're feeling much better ❤️❤️

Can't believe you shared such a personal story, but glad you did--especially so ppl know it's okay to question a dr. And get second, third, fourth opinions. I think it would be important to share your diagnosis and how it has impacted you since you went from thinking you possibly had cancer to something less severe! Glad you have some peace in knowing what is going on.

OMG that's so crazy what you had to go through. I went to several emergency room visits to only be told I was healthy and everything was fine with me, when in reality I was feeling horrible every other week. I finally racked up enough money and confidence to see a naturopath doctor where I'm from and she ran extensive blood work on me and found out I was extremely anemic, low blodd sugar and deficient in certain vitamins and have put me on iron shots among other vitamins that have helped me soooo much. Your health is worth fighting for. God is my strength as well as yours :) God bless you always.

Franceska you are so strong!! I love how much faith you carry with you everyday! I am so glad that you are feeling better!! Prayers for you always!

Hi! I am a follower of your sister Alex and I came across your channel and I LOVE it! I legit just sat and watched all your videos tonight. I look forward to your future videos and I love how you talk about god

Renewed faith!! I so cried with you and I know no answers can be frustrating but God is so amazing! You have an amazing foundation to reflect upon for the rest of your life--what an amazing gift God has gifted to you. Sooo..., onward we move. Just had to comment. Proud of you sweet, beautiful young lady.

You seem like a beautiful soul. I hope you feel so much better!

Franceska, you are so brave! Thank you so much for sharing this intimate life event with us. I love your sister Alex Garza and Michael and I follow them and now I follow you. May God always protect you and cover you with his wings. You are an amazing soul and God has many wonderful blessings for you.😘

I'm glad you're feeling better! Everything will fall back to its place so stay strong! You are surrounded with people you love and that love you and that's the joy of life. Love you

Praying for you! So glad you're feeling better

Thank you for sharing your story. The raw, honest emotions were inspiring and relatable in so many ways. It's bittersweet having negative/normal results when we are so desperately hoping for answers and something that will make us feel better. I will be borrowing your mantra "It's just a season". Be well, Beauty!

I had no idea ! Glad your doing better, keeping you in my prayers 💜

Thank you forsharing such a personal video! God bless you and your family....My prayers are always with you. I hope you are feeling better!

Wow! Beautiful inside and out. Thank you for your words of encouragement. They have truly helped me. God bless you!

I think you're an incredibly strong and brave woman. You are handling your difficult situation with such grace and poise while not letting your faith be shaken. God never gives us more than we can handle and you are a pillar of strength. God bless you and your family.

Thank you for sharing your story with us! I actually had an appointment with the Mayo Clinic recently and was unable to go. Your video really opened my eyes to the whole experience. I am in the same boat with appointment after appointment and being told they couldn't help me. I will try and get back into the Mayo after your positive advice! I admire your strength through god on your entire journey! I love your videos where you can sit down and just talk about your faith and life experiences. They are very touching! Thank you very much!!

So much love to you!!! Prayers and good vibes your way!!!!! 💜

Your story is so inspiring! Thank you for sharing. You are so brave & strong.

Had no idea you were going through this. So glad you don't have cancer. As for that nurse, the worst thing she could have told you to do would be to triple those dose of a drug that you clearly had a reaction to (plus her attitude sounds like it stinks!). If any of my patients told me they had a worse reaction I'd tell them to stop the medication, not triple it! Feel better soon lovely

You're such an inspirational person Frankie. Thank you for sharing this

So glad everything is ok!❤️ good bless u

God bless you 💗 so glad you're feeling better!

Wow I'm so sorry that you had to go through that!! But I am SO happy to hear that you're feeling better!!! God is so good and your love for Him is so inspiring! Love your videos! 💗🙌🏼

I have suffered from vertigo from allergies and that in itself was debilitating. I used to live feeling tired and having hot flashes mixed with the vertigo and thought it was a hormone imbalance but everything came back fine. I stopped drinking coffee and that alone helped so so much. I was diagnosed with BPPV but nothing was helping with that so I started doing my own research and realizing I had a lot of pressure in my ears, and pretty much realized it due to fluid in the ears and not the crystals. I was better in 2 weeks after taking allergy medicine! Stay positive. You will find answers! God is going to put you in right place at the right time. He never makes mistakes!

Awe, you have such a positive attitude toward it all! Praying for you!

Your such an inspiration Frankie! Just the way you handled everything and how strong you are is so inspiring and I'm so so glad your feeling better! 🙏🏼 Praise God! I really hope I get to meet your amazing self one day ❤️

Franceska, you've been through so much. I can't tell you how helpful this video was for me. I've been through the very same situations with doctors, and all the struggles of chronic illness. I have been ill for 5 years, and for the first 2, I went undiagnosed dealing with all the things you have, the doubt and skepticism from doctors, tests/scans coming back "normal" all that. It's nice to hear that someone out there understands. I'm so glad to hear you were so strong and didn't allow Drs to push you aside or force you into treatment. I know how stressful and confusing everything can be, in the midst of being ill it's so frustrating to have to deal with all the details of everything, sedation, blood tests, getting in touch with doctors all that stuff. Im so glad the Mayo clinic helped you! It sounds like they took good care of you. I'll be praying for you and your family, and that things continue to run smoothly so you can recover quickly! God Bless!

Franceska! First off, know that I hardly and I mean hardly ever comment on YT videos... But you practically praising God and sharing essential pieces of His word made me want to send you a big hug. May your faith in God grow every day, may the peace that passes ALL understanding be with you always and may God continue to strengthen your body and spirit. I truly admire you for sharing God's promises here on youtube... Many people are ashamed to. Big hug pretty girl.. God Bless you and greetings from San Diego 💕🙏🏼

Frankie, I first want to send you a warm hug & thank you for having the courage to share such a personal, touching story. So very happy that you are doing much better. I can't imagine the emotional ups & downs you & your family went through. You have such a great support system as well as such a positive outlook on life along with your strong faith. May God bless you & continue to keep you on a healthy road ahead. xoxo!!

Beautiful story and it's BEAUTIFUL to see you are well!!! Blessings to you Beauty. 💞

This video is so inspiring and touching! I got chills watching! Your positivity and love for christ radiates through the screen! So glad you are feeling better and hoping you STAY better! Sending love to you and your fam. I'm an avid Garza/Maddalena watcher so I feel like I know y'all personally! MUCH LOVE

Thanks for sharing your experience. Hope this helps those that are going through the same thing. Sending you prayers to get healthy.

Your faith, strength and positivity inspire me! xoxo

You are so natural, and I love the way you express your faith in God, you are beautiful and keep been yourself.

I just came across your video. Thank you for sharing this. Although I am a 48 year old woman I had a life changing experience with the Mayo Clinic also. I was in a tremendous amount of pain and no local doctor could figure it out. Finally a neighbor recommended I go to a uro-gynecologist at Mayo in Jacksonville, FL and she knew what it was immediately when examining me. I've had Pelvic Floor Dysfunction which can effect all the organs in that area, it's chronic but not life threatening at all. Finally I had answers and a hope for recovery! Plus, like you my faith was strengthened. I pray that God will use these situations to help others. Thank God for Mayo and for good friends. I'm a fan of yours now ;)

I too have been to the mayo clinic. It is a beautiful building! My experience there was the best medical care I have ever received. I am from Montana and went there in 2008 when I was unable to get answers after seeing several doctors. Mayo Clinic was able to give me an answer and get me on the right track for the rest of my life! Any issues in the future I will most definitely go back there. Thank you for sharing your experience with everyone. You are a very brave young lady with a bright future ahead of you! Never lose your faith and never stop helping other find their faith!

This video was so touching, you are such a beautiful person inside and out. Stay strong, God will heal ❤️ xoxo

I recently started following you so just came across this video. I'm so glad to hear you were able to find a solution that works for you. I wish you continued health and strength. Thank you for sharing.

I'm so sorry with everything you've been going through. But I'm glad to hear you are cancer free! You're an amazing strong woman and I wish you the best. God bless you and your family 😙💕

I'm so sorry you had to go through all of this and i will keep you in my prayers! You are so strong and such an inspiration! I live with chronic nerve pain in my back and things can get really tough sometimes so thank you for reminding me to trust in Gods plans and my faith.

thank you for this. I have my own struggling with illness and your words gave me so much strength and hope.

You are a beautiful person ❤️ I’m so glad you found the answers you were searching for.

I'm so glad you finally found someone that helped you out Frankie !! :D My family and I went through a very similar experience with my sister this past year & I can completely relate on her behalf that it is the most frustrating thing to go see doctor after doctor and have them say nothing shows up on scans but she was obviously not feeling well. Super happy that you are feeling better !! :D

So glad you are doing better! Stay strong pretty girl!

I'm so sorry to hear everything you have been going through! It can't be easy always feeling sick and like something is wrong. I'm praying for you still and I hope your health only gets better from here on out! Stay strong, God is on your side! 💕

You are such an amazing & strong woman!! I love your positivity & your inspiring words about God!! I just wish I could spend a day with you and your family, you guys are so positive!! you are in my prayers!!

So happy for you and that you are starting to feel better. Keeping you in my thoughts

Wow! You've come along way. So glad your much better.

Your love for and faith in God is a beautiful thing to watch. Thank you for making this video. It helps with the fear of the unknown for a lot of people during a very difficult time.

I'm so touched by the way you talk about God - It's like a breath of fresh air! Your video touched my heart and brought tears to my eyes. You are strong and I just know you will overcome this, as you've said in your vlog; it's just a season. I will continue to pray for you :)

Watching after listening to your podcast. So glad you’re doing better!

Start strong! And positive ! I went to the same thing a few month ago, the doctors thought have leukemia and I did get a second opinion and thank god I did have a really back infection that my white blood cells when up to the sky but everything is fine! I hope you feel better !

Francesca, one more thing...if you haven't already, use your patient number that mayo gives you and go onto the patient portal and read everything they put into your chart. It is very user friendly and can really help clarify things and also make sure they have everything correct about you. Again I'm praying.

So sorry you've had to experience this. I have a chronic gut condition that has stumped my doctors. I am just focusing on Him, and putting my trust in Him. Praying for continued peace, and healing. Don't worry about anything, instead pray about everything. 💕

I've been going through a experience similar to yours, it's been 6 years since my symptoms started, 2 surgeries, 5 different doctors and still no relief . Its tough when doctors don't know what's going on and symptoms keep progressing. Today, especially has been tough. Thanks for posting this, it gives me hope good days are also coming my way. I'm glad you finally got some answers. BTW, your sisters videos have extremely helped me when I am feeling down. I'm glad I have found your channel. Prayers your way

I am so sorry to hear that, it must have been such a shock! 😢 I couldn't imagine me being in this situation. I hope you're feeling better soon, stay strong ❤️💪🏻 greetings from Germany

@franceskagarza I needed this so much, i am actually going through something similar where the doctors cant find whats wrong with me and it is definitely discouraging. So happy to hear you are doing much better and have finally an answer and solution to what is going on. :)

Wow!!! You are an amazing, gracious, beautiful human being. God bless you and your family always 😘
