EE,

What helped the neurosurgeon make the final diagnosis? What tools? Was it just the physical exam?

I've heard that EMG's come up normal for many of these neuropathies. I'm wondering if any of these are more effective:

MR Angiogram
MR Neurography
MRI of brachial plexus
Scalene block
Thermography

These are some of the other diagnostic tools I keep running into in my research. I want to DEMAND the most effective test.

Anyone?

Thanks.

KY
