Since I probably have neuropathy now, an EMG would be a test for that. I discussed it with my PM doc at Clev Clinic last week. She said she never recommends them to anyone with RSD. And, she said it won't affect the outcome. Not like the would find a broken bone or something that can be fixed. EMGs just confirm diagnosis of some things. Maybe it's different if you have RSD from a cut nerve or something.
