Lynn that is not a very detailed impression section on your emg/ncs. For instance mine states a severe large fiber axonal sensory motor peripheral neuropathy with demyelination. ASk the doctor that did it is it primalrily axonal with demyelination caused by degenerating axons or demelinating causing axonal damage by the degeneration of the myelin sheath.

I have no statistics but after years of reading posts i havent read of too many peripheral neuropathies with unknown cause getting better. it does happen though.

I have had PN specialists tell me what Mrs. D has written that the prognosis for chronic long term peripheral neuropathies is not good. Too much systemic long term damage to recover, even if the cause is ameliorated.
