I'm glad to hear i'm not the only one. High dollar reimbursement shops really scare me. It takes me a lot longer to get the courage to schedule these, if ever. I'll read the listings, then nah. Next month, read again, no not yet.
One thing guidelines do that ramps up the anxiety is scream things like DO EVERYTHING EXACTLY AS WE SAY OR YOU WILL NOT BE PAID NO EXCEPTIONS IN FACT YOU WILL ALMOST CERTAINLY MESS THIS UP SO DON'T EVEN BOTHER or something like that, lol. Some shops are so specific, what to order, where to sit, etc, and I always immediately go to, what will happen if they're out of X or that section is closed or full. They should *always* include instructions for what to do when you cannot follow guidelines. And not, "email us," because my shop is on Sunday morning in a different time zone and they won't get back to me.
