2024_3_25 Electrical Diagnostic of nerve pain. Historical external popliteal nerve issues only, Thankfully.
One of the few tests to come back normal which I’m wholeheartedly happy to receive.
A lot of folks with chronic illness, including me, can have mixed feelings about “normal” test results since we would like answers, treatments, and validation for what we know feels “wrong” in our bodies. However in this case, I am delighted to chalk my nerve pain up to poor blood flow to my peripheries rather than actual damage.

@illmarks I know the feeling of being gutted by "normal" test results. It so often means more tests, or doctors giving up on me because they decide my illness isn't real (as opposed to, you know, testing on the wrong day or testing for the wrong thing). :lies_down: :blobcathearthug: but some tests you really want to be negative. Glad to hear this, definitely a good thing!
