Ok,

But I don't lay that much sinc my problem...I'm sure my problem startd with the dumbells and the massage. I guesse it mde me some small fibers lesions on my epidermal sikin. After the massage i felt my body vibrating. It was almost like being beaten down. After my MRI my skin feels strange. When it is cold "and you get chicken skin" I don't know if you use that expression it hurts... So it is a problem on my skin... Do you think being beaten down could cause neuropathies?

The massage and dumbbells would cause MUSCLE lesions, not Small Fiber Nerve lesions.

IF it was from the massage and dumbbells, i'm sure it's muscle.

But is it normal to take so much time to heal (6months)? The problem however is that I did the exercices at home. And I think I crushed some how my cubital nerve on my elbow. I felt a electric shock everytime I did that execice.

AS for the spreading of my pain. It was due to MRI. I'm so positive about it. I wasn't massaged on my eyes and they hurt. But as we know it is impossible. Non ionizing radiation don't damage nerves. Well in my case it did!!! Every individual is unique.... People complains about heating. Maybe is dued to neve damage... I wish I knew what MRI do to people...:(

I felt heat, but only when the contrast is inserted.

You did a nerve biopsy? A skin biopsy? What EXACTLY has your doctor told you? What has he said he THINKS is wrong?

If you injured your nerve (ulnar, most likely) It would have shown up in the EMG, any nerves you most likely would've injured would have been large nerves, which show up on an EMG.

I think you injured a muscle or tendon, you may have irritated a nerve, which can come and go, like you said your pains are intermittent.

As for your eyes burning, maybe they're dry? Sensory nerves on the eye, I'm not aware of.

The dye used as contrast in some MRIs has shown problems, but only rarely:

It is the dye, not the magnets which damages the kidneys and skin.

Hi,

I think was very close to damage my ulnar nerve. One day I woke up and cannot move my right arm. the problem was that I did my EMG 3 months after my initial symptoms. I'm affraid they had been cured on that period. What do you think? Another doubt I have is, are nerves composed by large nerve fibers and small ones? Or there are only small fibers on skin? On the oher hand my problem was maximized by the MRI. Why? That is what I wanted to know...I know that RF is use to kill nerves and MRI uses Radio Feq....
