hi. i was diagnosed with zoster sine herpete after 3 weeks of horrible nerve pain down entire right side. at this time i developed foot drop, for which I take PT twice a week and have been measured for an AFO brace. The docs (4 of them) were able to trace the origiin of the virus to L5. I can now, after 3 months, lift 4 toes. my question is: what do you think the chances of recovery of nerve function is, and how long might it take. I have not had a Nerve Conduction test yet
