What is a nerve conduction block exactly??
I was wondering if I have what is known as a nerve conduction block.
If I do then it rules out CMT, and rules in CIDP. (these are the last 2 things I am down to in my testing) I've been through all the blood test.. *except the Athena diagnostics test* So.. here is something from my EMG, and I am wondering if its a conduction block? OR no? And if not, then what one is? "The sural sensory response is absent". Does that mean that I have a conduction block? Sorry for all the questions lately, but this is my life.. literally. The difference between being told I have CMT and CIDP would be if I can get treatment or not. And my mother refuses to have an EMG done. |
I googled conduction block : conduction block a blockage in a nerve that prevents impulses from being conducted across a given segment although the nerve beyond is viable.
Given that I had zero response is it safe to say that what I have then is a conduction block? Which then means that I have CIDP, which the makes sense why they are testing me the way they are. (spinal tap, EMG #4, And possibly nerve biposy) Well, I guess I should count my blessings. There are treatment options for CIDP. |
