Hi, I want to know what the NCV test is, and is it painful? What is the procedure for doing this, i m getting tingling sensations and pain in my right hand, so the doctor suggested that.

To:Specialists Am suffering from pins n needles post laminectomy surgery in left calf and entire feet 24*7*365 since 2010. Surgery was not successful as I developed infection of spine. Infection was detected and treated post 6 months of surgery, perhaps leading to this problem of nerve damage. Lyrica and Gabapentin do not work. Have learnt to live with this pain , but constantly in pursuit of some specialist who has treated same in order to improve my quality of life. Magnesium glycinate supplements at night help with sleep. Request if anyone can guide in the matter. Regards, Hemant

For the last 3 yrs she has been having pain under the nose. She gets lot of relief when she uses chlorhexidine mouthwash. Our dentist rules out dental problem.The condition is correlated with dry mouth. The pain gets triggered with exposure to chill air. Neurologist says it could be a mild version of trigeminal neuralgia.However she is pain-free sometimes for months together.Pain especially high in mornings.Any help is appreciated
