Neuro exam?: It is hard to estimate the degree of neurologic assessment that was done, particularly in the context of what testing was performed. Getting another opinion may be helpful here to re-evaluate any specific areas of weakness, correlated with subtle sensory loss and thus where nerve conduction and EMG studies could be (additionally) focused, especially if you were evaluated early in your symptoms.
