EMG Horror

0 Recommendations

So today I had an EMG and it hurt!!!
This is yet another step I have taken to find the answers to the horrid pain in my right leg. Years ago I had an EMG and it did not hurt at all.
At some point my goal is to get my local doctors to believe me about my Tarlov Cyst and have them understand the pain it is causing me every moment of every day. I have filled out th internet information to see a doctor in MO. but have not heard back from them yet.
I am so tired of not getting any sleep, not being able to wak around the park with my son, being in svere pain trying to grocery shop, etc.
I completely understand that some people lie about pain to get "drugs" but that is not me.
If I could have one wish......again it would be the ability to transfer my pain to the doctor for only 10 seconds so they can feel what I feel. Maybe then, they will seek an answer if they fear I can wish it again.
Hope everyone is having a good day as much as possible.
I get my EMG results on Monday.....wish me discovery luck.
