[edit] New Page please fix

This topic deservies its own page, as noted in Talk:Sciatica. So this is a really quick fix. I must admit that the definition (not the forms) is a cut and paste job from [1]. I don't have time to fix, but maybe this is a start.

[edit] Ooops

(re-edit) Is there a misclassification? I note from Arcadian's additions that Radiculopathy is primarily diseases of nerve roots (esp. spinal nerve roots) ... My limited research agrees. It makes me think that Carpal tunnel syndrome is not truly radiculopathy but just classified as some form of peripheral neuropathy. Possibly the same goes for Ulnar nerve entrapment, although it could be related to Cervical radiculopathy. This page may need a little cleanup. I removed CTS and UNE, we may also need to remove Piriformis syndrome as well. Root4(one) 22:39, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
