Are the emg tests as painful as I've heard? I hesitate to have one done.

I've had 3 EMGs performed over the last couple of years. I found each one to be extremely uncomfortable and painful. I do not look forward to needing a 4th.

Hi, @gen55 ~
I copy the answers given by @jillb329 and @aaroncush. What they shared totally mirrored my experiences (one on lower limbs & feet; the other on arms & hands.) Annoying? Yes. Something to be feared? No.
