Nerve conduction tests query please

After 7 months of barely being able to walk finally today got a Lumbar Puncture. 🙁 Apparently there was blood mixed in with the spinal fluid and it won't test properly so I will have to have another - shittiest thing ever and I do not want another one! But, having a nerve conduction test on Thursday and wondered what I am in store for - not so bad? After getting no help for so long and having so much go wrong with myself my nerves seem really frayed and I am feeling anxious about this. Thanks.

Hi @tumbleweed, Like you, I found the round of tests and the wait very difficult. I am sorry you need another lumbar puncture. On the nerve conduction test, it’s not the most pleasant thing (I would prefer a massage) but it’s totally bearable. You’ll be fine!

@tumbleweed

@mgriffiths5 - Thanks so much for that, totally bearable sounds manageable :) Ta
