Hey Ina...

Personally (And only my opinion) I will NEVER have an EMG again. I had one a year ago when the drs decided that "RSD can't do this to a person so it's got to be some neurodegenerative disease" sort of thing and we agreed because of the pain involved that they would only do one arm... however, this was over a year ago and led to one of my worst ever flares which I still haven't got over (it managed to escalate the RSD to a whole new level)....

BUT... to balance this out, I know many people that have had EMG's and expereinced no problems other than raised pain levels for a couple of days after the investigation....

So.. whatever you go for.. Good luck...

is the numbness intermittent or constant? have you found that the it co incides with blackness?

Love

Froggsy xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
