Hey, Paula,

I had EMG testing. Most of it wasn't so bad because it was quick. However, the EMG on my hands was a nightmare, and went on forever, like a cortisone injection there. It diagnosed carpal tunnel in both wrists. The rest was normal. I didn't have surgery because recovery takes too long, and I need to work. Catch 22. I probably got it from working. I wear splints at night and take gabapentin.

I also had Evoked Potentials testing done. Visual was fine. But the somatosensory tests were painful, and it went on and on for three hours. All was normal.

What testing did you have done?
