Default Brachial Plexus MRI Scan Results

Well, Received call from my original Neurosurgeon last evening by phone. He told me the MRI was "negative" after two different reads. One being "his specialist" The neuro-pathways are there in tact he said.. I stated that we know the "pathways" are intact via the NCV test results.(duh) I did state that MRI's have been shown to be in-conclusive in diagnosing the type of injury symptoms I'm having. I had to push him farther as to the next step, (i.e. different imaging/SSEP's) I stated that we both agree that my arm/shoulder as some serious issues. He concurred, and offered to refer me to the "Best" guy he knows in NC, Head of Neurosurgery over at Duke Medical. I'll take the referral I guess, but my trust in him is pretty much non-existent at this time. Talk about feeling like a rat in a cage just now!
