Is there any way to determine nerve problems from my low back other than having a nerve conduction study?

A recent study showed that the use of Quantitative Sensory Testing is comparable to nerve conduction studies. The QST is a battery of seven tests that measures 13 different sensory parameters such as vibration, hot, cold, pinprick, blunt pressure, touch, and pain summation.
