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.

When we refer to healing, usually its regeneration, and nerves are not known to do that, they can compensate for damage, by growing longer connections, unless something is messed up inside the cell.
