What Does This NCV Test Report Indicate?
I am facing tingling and numbness with aches and pains in B/L lower and upper limbs.
I am 50 yrs old, my height is 5'8'', and weight is 55 Kg.
My Dr suggest NCV test. My NCV test reports are as follows:
1) B/L Axxilary, RT.ULNAR, B/L MSCT and RT.UNLAR (sensory) nerves show features of PRIMERY DEMYLENATING NEUROPATHY.
2) B/L CPN, B/L PTN, B/L M.PLANTER and B/L L.PLANTER NERVES show features of MIXED AXONO -DEMYLENATING NEUROPATHY.
What are they suggested actually? Please suggest me the actual meaning of these results.
Thanks in advance.
