Thanks for the information, drp. I know that surgery is a good option for MP.
But my doctor told me that I'm not a candidate for the surgery. My MRT was normal and the nerve conduction velocity test, too. My doctor told me that my nerve is not compressed, but irritaded. And this condition will go away by itself within 3-12 months. During this time I can use the lidoderm patches for relief.

You seem to be a MP specialist. Is my doctor right? Are there really cases in which MP disappears by itself?I have MP since October 2010 with various pane levels.
