Or you can do what I did. say "touch me again and I'll punch you in the face".

Works every time.


But seriously, when I hopped off the table and said what I said, the person looked at me and said "I know, I know, some people find this a tad uncomfortable". That's when I wanted to take the electrodes and put them on her (nah, can't do that, too horrible).

Honestly, if you have PN and are numb, it will probably be like what happened to my husband. He never felt a blessed thing until they got up past his ankle.

He has had two of these tests and the results were always the same.

His feet are so numb, one time he went to the podiatrist and he had to do some work on a bad toe and the doctor said "I have to give you an injection" and I told the doctor, Don't bother, he can't feel anything." The doctor did not believe him. Well, the doctor did the work on the toe and looked at my husband and said "are you serious, you can't feel this". And Alan said "why, what are you doing?"


true story.
