Question
asheth007
I had a EMG and Nerve Conduction study 2 years ago I have tried searching on the internet about Carpal Tunnel syndrome and ulnar neuropathy and how to read the EMG and Nerve Conduction study. My Rheumatolgist thinks I have carpal tunnel and my PCM thinks I have Ulnar neuropathy. I have the results of my EMG and Nerve Conductio study from 2 years ago and was wondering if it would show up in the results based on the numbers listed. The EMG and Nerve Conduction was done specfically for my right arm which I later found out I had inflammatory myopathy which later turned into a diagnoses for polymyositis. The initial from the EMG was that they thought I had ALS possibly.
I can post the EMG and Nerve Conduction results if someone knows how to read it. Otherwise I would have to get another EMG and Nerve conduction done and I didn't find it to enjoyable the first time. I was given wrist splints yesterday by the VA. I am trying to setup a claim for carpal and/or ulnar and really only want to do another EMG/NCS unless I really have no other choice. I was told that I have carpal tunnel and it is in my records the VA gave me not service connected for carpal tunnel on both wrists and said from C&P results the examiner felt it was in remission.

Usually a neurologist or physiatrist can review your nerve conduction studies and EMG tests and determine exactly what is causing your problem. I have had surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome and cubit
