Hi Joan

No, it doesn't mean you don't have NP - there are nerves in the feet that are too small to be tested, so if they are being affected it won't show up on the emg. So, it is quite possible (and even likely) that you have NP. I think it is small fibre PN that does not show up, but seeing I do not have this type of neuropathy I could be wrong about what it is called.

Best thing to do is talk to your neurologist about your test results, and I am sure there will be others along to answer you post who know more about this than I do.

cheers
