my first thought was a rupture blood vesssel from one of the needles ... i would tell the doctor.
i also agree with not having any treatments, tests, or medications that i do not want. i had a very partial emg to prove my nerve damage to myself and it was used for my legal issues too. but i have refused more than i have been offered that is for sure. i feel with rsd no one really knows what to do and i am my best judge. i get my choices, do my own research and then discuss it with my pcp .... joan
