What medical conditions and neuropathies would normal emg/ ncv test rule out.. Six years ago I went to a neuro because of burning on my torso and then feet and hands.. He gave me a ncv test told me I had mild neuropathy and sent me home with an rx for elavil and temazepan .. I couldn't tolerate the elavil and the temazepan resulted in a long nightmarish withdrawal ... But that is another story... My neuropathy seemed to improve and didn't worsen until last winter.. Now I'm getting more burning and numbness in feet.. Which I never had before I changed health care providers and went to a new neuro.. Unfortunately I couldn't access
my old records because my former neuro passed away... Needles to say I was surprised when the test results came back normal ... Which leads me to believe The original neuro read the Test wrong, or the original neuropathy improved .. Yet my symptoms got worse... Anyway o just requested a skin biopsy to check for sfn... I'm kind of surprised the neuro didnt order it himself.. He ordered all kinds of blood work all of which came back normal except for slightly elevated B6... Sorry for the digression, but back to the original question what type of neuropathies or or other maladies does the normal emg/ncv test rule out... Thanks
