Hello @jolea. I had nerve conduct testing as part of the run up to diagnosis. At that time, it was to look at whether I had MS or a reoccurrence of sarcoidosis. The results showed that my sensory, rather than motor responses were slower. Since being diagnosed, my susmptoms have continued to be sensory. Not sure this helps, but that’s my experience anyway! :-)
