Injury to axons: Catnix, an axonal polyneuropathy is a neuropathy involving multiple nerves that occurs from injury to the axons. If your ncv/emg showed this, it is important to be certain that it is worked up completely to rule out B12 deficiency, hypo/hyperthyroidism, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, syphillis/hiv, and sarcoidosis. I would discuss further workup with your neurologist.
