Default EMG Results - help interpret?

My left sural nerve has been acting up, burning pain and numbness at the heel and through the toes - as well as now, my right foot (big toe) is being affected.

I had an EMG done back in January when it was just my left foot and here are the results:

All F Wave latencies were within normal limits

All H Reflex latencies were within normal limits

Needle evaluation of the Left abductor digiti quinti muscle showed slightly increased spontaneous activity and increased motor unit duration. All remaining muscles showed no evidence of electrical instability.

Impression: Inconclusive study

(EMG reviewed mild chronic and acute neurogenic changes in the left abductor digiti quinti muscle only. This could be consistent with tarsal tunnel syndrome affecting the lateral plantar nerve versus a mild S1 radiculopathy.)

Left AbdDigQuiniti LatPlantar S1-2:
Ins Act: Nml
Fibs: 1+
Psw: Nml
Amp: Nml
Dur: +Incr
Poly: 0
Int Pat: Nml
Recruitment: Nml

What does this mean? My Orthopedist said that it was a normal study... ?
