Qatar Changed schedule: 10 minute connection at ORD.
First of all, hello to the flyertalk community. Feels great to be a part of such a great community. It's my first thread, so I hope you will cut some slack for me. But anyways getting to the point, I booked a round trip (Aug'14 -Dec'14) DEL-DOH-ORD-DSM and DSM-ORD-DOH-DEL. Qatar has changed the schedule of this trip 3-4 times since the time of booking, but since they were minor changes, I didn't have any problem. But yesterday they changed the schedule of ORD-DOH (December trip) and now I have a connection time of 10 minutes at ORD. This is the first time I have booked with Qatar, and considering the regular schedule changes, I am regretting my decision to book with them instead of going with my regular United. Any advice on what to do?
Also I didn't book the trip directly on Qatar site.

jfisher21's advice is correct. But you may also wish to check the DSM-ORD schedule online before you contact the agent, so that you will know what flight you wish to take.

This is the TA's problem to sort. Just figure out what you want, call the TA and have them sort it. The connection is, of course, way below the MCT.
I am correctly presuming that you are on one ticket xDSM?
