4 weeks in agony after EMG and counting

[Lina78]

please can you help? I was ordered the EMG because I have Lyme and small fiber neuropathic pains in the limbs only after exercise for one or two days until the muscles/nerves replenish what is missing, I haven't been able to get any tests in years and finally I went to a small fiber specialist who still ordered me the EMG. I don't care that doctors say that EMG cannot hurt, during the test it was the most excruciating experience I could ever imagine, like the dentist touching your nerve on the teeth only 200 times, the doctor who performed the test was quite shaken herself and didn't do the needles, only the first half. After that I had/have MAJOR neuropathic pain in the limbs such as I have experienced maybe for half an hour twice in the last ten years, I can't sleep I feel very sick all the time with nausea and fainting probably because of the extreme pain, and often I have these random shocks in the big nerves of the body, lasting maybe one minute. yesterday I noticed that the finger beds of my toes are purple and I guess it is time that I go to the hospital. I am very afraid that they will hurt me some more. Can you please suggest WHY this is happening, I am in agony the neurologist who ordered the test refused to answer the phone and let me know by his secretary that "It is not possible to have such effects" but it is possible and I am suffering immensely. Any ideas?
