I had received a similar answer from my neuros but I was also told that nerve healing is extremely rare (they always make sure to say that).
I tend to think you can tell if the damage is progressing or not on your own if you keep a record of your pain and symptoms. I have been able to confirm that my symptoms are currently not progressing, however I have not seen any evidence of improvement. Hard to ever know if you are actually "healing" though. I would think a biopsy would be needed to confirm that and even that can be inaccurate.
