A member asked:
Nerve conduction study normal but neurologist noted that right ankle reflex was reduced. how can that be if the nerve study was normal?

H reflex: You are probably referring to the H reflex, a late response and is often used to assess the S1 nerve root, or sometimes the sacral plexus, which can be involved in radicuolpathies and neuropathies. If you are not having symptoms it is likely mild but I would speak with your neurologist for a full examination and further guidance.
