Greetings to Everyone

I'm a new kid on the block and hopefully no one will mind if I jump out and ask few questions.

Hoping that someone can help me understand the differences, if there are any, between Peripheral Neuropathy and Sensory Motor Demyelinating Neuropathy.

An EMG/NCV on 02/27/06 indicated, among other things, that I had Peripheral Neuropathy ... and the same test on 06/06/07, by another doc, reported the Sensory Motor Demyelinating Neuropathy findings.

Have been bothered by low back pain and leg pain for years ... and then, out of the blue, these neuropathies pop up. Not sure, but maybe it's because these are the first such tests I've ever had. Anyway, the left leg pain is now so severe that I'm unable to walk or stand on it. So far, I haven't got a lot of help or advise from the doctors.

Any response would be appreciated.
