Guest guest Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 Betty, This is a good description of the spinal tap. It is another diagnostic tool for neurological disorders. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003428.htm I don't think it is too common anymore if CMT or HMSN is indicated from the EMG/NCV. It is a pretty grueling procedure, or at least it was for me. My fluid was clear, so got a 'normal' result - just as with every other " test " I've had. Has anyone else had a spinal tap?
