Did they do more then one site? Ask for detail on EACH site as they number may be different at the more distal location.

Thank you. The final path report will tell all of that. My neuro said he switched labs because this one actually looks at the condition of the nerves not just the count and the lady said that the report will be very detailed. I just did not think there would be any way my count would be normal since I've been dealing with the pain for so many years.
And I finally had hope for some kind of treatment and now I feel like I'm back to square one...not knowing.
Is there any way that I could have SFN with a normal nerve count ? if nerve conditions are normal, will the condition be ruled out ? thank you. I appreciate your help more than words can say!
