Didn't you also have the kind of SFEMG where you didn't "participate" by contracting your muscles?
Thanks, Annie! Yes, that third SFEMG, by which I was diagnosed, was a "stimulated" SFEMG. Instead of having me contract my muscles voluntarily, he had little electrodes on my face that sent out pulses of electricity (not strong ones like in an EMG--no pain) that made my muscles twitch. The doctor who did it was a neurological ophthalmologist with a special interest in MG.
