Today I had an appointment at neuropsychology and the did an EMG test on me and I never want to do that again.
Started off ok small electric shocks nothing to uncomfortable they got a bit bigger towards the end, then she shoved a needle into my arm and got me to move it again I thought oh this isn't that bad. Then came the legs, I nearly blacked out, she told me to keep pushing against this needle above my ankle I felt like screaming at her saying I can't push anymore its killing me! I had to stop the test I couldn't do anymore after calming down I allowed her to do one more in the top of my leg which wasn't as bad but she said most people black out when they have the ankle and the wrist done as it's the main nerve no where in the leaflet did it mention that! Thankfully I got let off the wrist one as I think she thought I'd be a mess on the floor if she did that one.
