level of LV

I think that V here refers to the fifth, or lowest lumbar vertebra (lumbaalinen in Finnish). The vertebrae are commonly numbered LI-LV, SI-S3, etc., so the ENMG shows irritation at the level of the fifth lumbar vertebra.

increased neurological symptoms ?????

The ENMG test refers to electrical neuromuscular testing, where low electrical impulses are input into nerves and how the muscles react to them. This has to do with neuromuscular issues, but I am not certain as to the Finnish term to be exact.

Oh yes, the impulses are conducted via needles that are poked into the leg... been there, very uncomfortable!

level of the lumbar vertebrae

Just throwing this out there - I am absolutely not certain, I just know (from personal experience, alas) that lower back pain and pain down the back of the leg can go together.

On second thought, maybe that confidence level ought to be down to 2. Like I said, this is just a (semi-educated) guess.
