single fiber EMG
by maggiemag, Apr 07, 2008 11:14PM
Has anyone had a single fiber EMG done? Exactly how painful is it? I think they are doing the diaphragm at a minimum and possibly other muscles as well. I was told that there is a small risk of pneumothorax, but the guy is supposedly very skilled. I have unilateral ptosis plus resp. muscle weakness. My other EMG was normal and the MG lab was negative. I would really appreciate any info!
