Not sure that will help but wanted you to have that in the back of your mind depending on what your results show.

Thanks Debi, I think you mentioned the same on my first post here a few weeks back which made me aware of the small fibre neuropathy issue. I had a brief EMG a year ago which was normal and on the legs only as I was complaining about my feet.
I know my next EMG is going to cover my hands too which also give me problems but are less noticeable than my feet unless I am doing something with them like cleaning, gardening etc. They seem to start cramping very quickly and I have to rest a few seconds then grip again.
