Respectfully, those read like clinical findings from a physical exam. EMG reports are normally written so as to discuss various wave types, needle insertional abnormalities, etc., over tested muscles and whether or not those findings are abnormal. NCV reports discuss velocity of peripheral nerve transmission usually compared to the contralateral side and whether or not there is slowing of conduction. None of it reads like a typical EMG/NCV report. Sorry! I am not implying anything at all, and am sure that your statements about efficatous treatments are true. Rather just a simple direct statement that your EMG/NCV report does not read like a conventional report or offer anything that such a report would afford (at least so far as you have offered). Can't offer advice that you seek about opinions not supplied!

There are several pages to the report. This is the only part I included because it was the easiest for me to understand and type. The Dr. used a portable EMG/NCV unit in his office.
