What do the words ncu bug ble mean in appointment card?
Patient: Hi, I have a friend with an mri that shows 2 sacks of fluid on top of her brain and another cyst (Ibelieve on the left side. She has frequent headaches that last for about five minutes. She was told by a very respected nuerologist to stay away from stress and was given depacote , bupap among other things. Her son then went missing for about a week and then was found drowned in a river. So much for staying away from stress. On top of that it has been over two months and the medical examiner is still holding his body. Anyway she goes back to her neurologist with a complaint about not being able to feel the top of her left foot. He then checks the pulse in her neck and cannot find one, or a very weak one. And sends her for tests. The test was something where he stuck something up to her neck and checked her pulse and even then he had trouble getting one on the left side. She said it was painful because he pud to push so hard. Now she goes back in a month for more test. The doctor wrote on her appointment card the letters NCU BUG BLE. Just wanting some thoughts on her condition and something about what she moght expect to happen from here, Thanks in advance Doctor: Hi. NCU i think might be NCV nerve conduction velocity, that is the kind of exams the doctor has made. As for more information it would be better ask the doctor who wrote that to be more specific.I hope have been helpful
