The long diagnostic procedures, that some tests that are repeated over and the wait will drain anyone. I am trying to stay in the day but I know chronic pain and immobility without relief can just make coping and adjusting more difficult for the best of us. It is a frightening thing when your body does what it wants to do inspite of our best efforts. Have you been placed on any muscle relaxers? Have you been tested for connective tissue disorders and autoimmune diseases? Neuromuscular disease effects the EMG/NVC. Try to take some positive feelings from the fact that the test is normal.

A very good friend of mine has RSD and suffers horribly at times. I am no expert nor doctor, but her symptoms are similiar to yours. She was initially worked up for everything from MS to PN. She has good days and bad and recently went through a 3 month period where she was just about chair bound.

I am sorry you are struggling. Venting here can help a bit.
