Guest guest Posted December 11, 2001 Report Share Posted December 11, 2001 Hi gang: just thought I'd share my experience..... Well, I believe that there are after-effects, as least for me. I had mine on Oct. 18 and it wasn't until about Dec. 9th that my legs/hips felt like their 'normal' selves. I walked quite a distance with no problem to get to the test, walked away feeling ok, but the following day and 3 weeks afterward I didn't want to go or walk anywhere, didn't sleep well because of burning/aching, couldn't get on and off my stationery bike as easily, didn't want to drive because of leg fatigue. 3 weeks of this is not normal for me, even if I happen to overdo things. So I'm sure my nerves had to recover from the 'shocks'. I am much so much better now, thank goodness. Melody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 11, 2001 Report Share Posted December 11, 2001 I know that after my EMG I had a similar finding. My nerves burned and I felt EXTREMELY weak and shakey the entire next day. The doc's nurse said, mmmm, that's not normal, have you been checked for blood sugar problems? AAAAAGGGHHHH They just really don't understand what it does to someone with a nerve disorder, and frankly, I don't think some of them really care.
