has anyone had an EMG/nerve conduction study?
Post Body

My CRPS is in my feet, but I'm concerned that it's spreading to my left hand. The pain started towards the end of last year and it was exactly like my CRPS pain, though not as intense. My doctors agreed that it was likely the CRPS spreading and I had two stellate ganglion blocks in january. The pain was pretty much gone after that, and my hand was fine until 2 weeks ago when it started hurting again. This time my doctor wants me to get an EMG, mainly to rule out carpal tunnel. I'm worried that the test will cause a flare up or spread. How likely is that? Does the EMG hurt?
