With RSD they did it on both legs so they could compare the differences. On my good leg it only felt like a humming sensation, on my bad leg it felt like I had stuck my leg into an electric power generator. I do not look forward to that test but I guess they cannot do a diagnosis without it.

For me wasnt too painful except when they trried to do that muscle in neck (i dont know what it is called but it is that weirdly sensitive muscle that your older brother would always grab, paralyze you by). Anyway that was too sensitive for me to be able to stay as still as i needed to so they just moved on to another muscle.

Good luck, hopeit isnt too painful
