My pain clinic dr wanted me to have an EMG and QSART test to confirm suspected RSD in my wrist. Every dr I have says they think it's what's going on. Anyways, last Tuesday I went for the EMG. The pain was horrendous! One of the needles that they stuck into my should was excruciating. I cried and screams and the pain has never left. It's as if it set off a fire of pain in my shoulder. I have never had any shoulder pain. That night I creid and cried trying to find a way to calm the pain. Since then it's eased up some but is by far from normal and barely tolerable. Has anyone else had a problem with the EMG test? No one mentioned any "risks" of the test.....had I known this I would have never agreed to it.
