They are brief shocks. They only stuck me 2 times with the needles.....once in my arm and once in the leg. It was uncomfortable but not like I needed to scream or anything.
And I've never heard of any type of damage coming from this test. Are you sure you're not thinking of another test ?
Anyhow....each person is different and everyone I've ever talked to about it were just sick about having to get it done. They all come back and said it was not nearly as bad as they thought it would be.
Hope this info helps and please let me know how it goes for you.
Take care,

They want to test my left leg, low back, all upper extremities. I was in an auto accident 2 yrs ago that resulted in my low lumbar having 2 slightly bulged discs. My left leg has some weakness and periodic pain (depending on what I do physically). I was told that the test would take at least 2 hrs and would likely have to insert at least 25 needles if not more.
