Can anyone explain to me the mechanism by which a tuning fork/vibration actually tests the sensory nerves? Is it more or less sensitive than the monofilament or just testing differently? I recently had a Pt with MS who GP referred for neurol tests- she felt monofilament at all sites tested, but not the tuning fork at all.......conclusions are???
