Yes, I had this done to me and the Dr. didi warn me as well that it is painful!!!! He just asked me my pain level! I said ZERO!!!!! This was the final test that determined I had MG only in my eyes though. It did start generalizing into my body! I started taking Mestinon for my eyes, now i'm on Pred & IVIG treatments!! Just ask your Dr. if you could take some kind of pain reliever. Good Luck!!!! Good Luck!! Oobadooba

Even he said "It's a little painful because it takes about an hour".
When a dr admits in advance it is painful, it makes me wonder.
Have any of you had this facial EMG? I'm thinking of calling and asking if I can take tylenol or something ahead of time to help with the pain during the procedure.
