Aww!! Very sweet picture. Is he your first/ only grandchild?



On the EMG (Sydney) -my PM Dr has offered me to get one done but I didn't know if the pain would be worth it and for the past 2 months or so I have been debating it... no one knows if I "actually do have a nerve injury". I believe I do- because I smashed my finger real bad in the car door (that started my RSD), but I don't know if if I have a small nerve injury it will show up on the EMG. I believe that usually they only pick up the larger nerves (especially if the EMG machine is old)?! Recently I have opted against getting the EMG at least for now- I am in too much pain already and the treatment I get for RSD will be the same whether or not I have a identifiable nerve injury.

I also have a lot of sensitivity issues and for that reason I think an EMG for me would be sheer tortue. I know just what you mean.
