Botched EMG - Please help

[countryrose]

I returned from a EMG gone bad...I have had undiagnosed leg parathesias, (tuggging, tingling, weakness)also head and back of neck,  extreme fatigue, extreme sensitivity to all stimuli and pain, worse during humidity or high repetition! A neuro whose group is supposed to be at the top in his field did the EMG and had to stop after shocking me during the nerve testing phase! I felt it so extreme to my bone that it literally left my hands shakey and eye started to twitch. Mind you, the area tested was my leg! I kept sweating and getting very hot and requested that we move on to the needles instead, to which he said that would be worse, so he said to quit and get my xrays done and finish the rest of the test at a later date! Why was it so painful to me..everything I have read about EMg's seems so straightforward...I couldn't tolerate it.
From what he did do, my muscle response was normal. He told me that he still didn't know the cause of my symptoms, to which I thought was ridiculous since he's supposed to be the best, then he uttered maybe "fibromyalgia"..I thought "oh no" here we go again. Anyone else have sensitivy to emg? What could this mean if a reaction is so extreme as mine?

My mother was prescribed prozac.  Her leg "paralysis" was caused by her mind.  It didn't help.  Eventually, she just forgot about it.

Hi, thanks for responding..Something to think about I am sure. In the past for other chronic pain, I have tried stress reduction technqiues, but this seems very different and debilitating. Yes, its true after I felt the major jolt on my ankle bone, I couldn't stand the sensation any further. My original reason for this emg was due to leg parasthesias and sensitivity and inability to walk...However, I have become hypo-sensitive to pain (low tolerance in every aspect, foods, meds, etc..

Was your mother prescribed anything, and did it help?

I think your problem is psychosomatic.  My mom had the same kinds of symptoms you're describing, and the hysteria with which you wrote your post shows a definite psychological component.
