I did have an EMG a few years ago and it did not feel this bad at all, it hurt but not like this one did I had to have a ct scan after that and I get my results on Tuesday! I am really mad because my current pain doctor (she implanted my neurostimulator and it is now messed up) has said that she gives up on trying to help me and I have to see a new doctor. This might be a good thing because she does not take me seriously and she does not help me anymore. I am now being sent to a new pain doctor but her office still has not sent my referral or records over so I cannot even make an appointment! I am so sick and tired of this but trying to be optimistic that once I do get the other doctor he will help me! Its just so confusing when everyone is saying different things and whatever is wrong keeps getting worse! Thank you for listening and responding!
