Hi. I'm going to email you as well but was thinking of you cause I just had my second emg and an ssep which was way worse. Anyhow this time with my emg I was in so much more pain and even now am throbbing through 2 vicadin. I had tears and I was thinking that it may have been worse because my symptoms are worse the past few days. So maybe when you had your emg your symptoms were flaring and that made it worse. Will see how I will be later and tomorrow but I don't think I can go through that again when I'm having a flare up. Also I don't know if I said this but just because something is rare such as your after burning with the emg doesn't mean it can't happen. I guess I hate when my feeling are not validated so I hear you and I hope you can find a way to get the help you need without extra pain.
