Question EMG's and NCV's -- ever done in different positions?

I was wondering if there are occasions when nerve testing is done in different positions. My reason for asking is that the neuropathy in my feet is different when I have been sitting than it is when I have been standing. All of my testing was done in a supine position, if I recall correctly.

Do neurologists ever do the tests in various positions, or doesn't your position make a difference?
