I live in Canada and it is not quite that easy. I had to fight for a long time to get any type of referral from my GP. He finally referred to a Respirologist as this is how everything has seemed to begin and she thought I should see neuro. This was 1 year after I 1st saw my GP...a neuro consult here can take up to 2 years due to demands. I did manage to get into one who is 2 hours away as our local ones are booked..Can't get a new GP as there are several thousand persons in my area with no GP at all....All I know re my EMG is that he stuck a needle in my arm a few times and watched a monitor.
