Default EMG Test Experiences?

I looked in the search box for this and I didn't find much about this test. My Neurologist called to follow up with me today. Since my numbness, tingling and pain seems to be progressing rather quickly, she suggested doing an EMG. I'm not at all sure what this test is supposed to do and from a google search it appears it is quite painful. I'm just not sure I want to have anymore poking and prodding done at the moment, and it appears some people claim it worsens their symptoms. I really don't want to make matters worse. How painful is this test?
