About the SFEMG--the test collects data, and then the data needs to be analyzed. The first two times I had it done, the doctor took the needles out and had me wait while he did the analyzing on the spot. The third time (the one that got me diagnosed) the doctor (a different doctor) saw so much "jitter" that it was clear to him that the test was positive, even before counting it all up. So he dismissed me and did the counting later.

I'm pretty sure I have that right. It explains why sometimes you get results on the spot, and sometimes you have to wait for them.
