Neuropathy vs Radiculopathy
 
I continue to search for more answers but invariably end up on all these stupid rabbit trails.....

On ONE hand, this is saying that the two are DIFFERENT conditions....yet in the same breath, it conveniently puts the two terms together to make it yet ANOTHER condition ????

Is this a legitimate diagnosis ??

Radiculopathy is neuropathy affecting the nerve root as far as I know. The nerve root is close to the spine (where the nerve comes out of the spine I think, but I am a bit hazy on all this).

I have never hear the term radiculoneuropathy, but presumable that is the same thing. I am sure someone will come along who knows more than me.

If you google radiculopathy you should come up with lots of information

cheers
