Hi, I’ve had an EMG 6 times. I have nerve damage in my left leg from 2 strokes. I never really thought the test was painful until the last time. A resident doctor decided he wanted to do the EMG to both of my legs for a comparison. I was actually crying during the right leg procedure. I now refer to it as the Frankenstein test. Do not allow a rookie to do it, and if you’re having legit numbness, weakness… it should not cause you much pain. Don’t be afraid 🥰.
