EMG Testing Today

Posted , 3 users are following.

I had the EMG testing done today. It was painful at times but it only lasted 10 minutes.

I told the Dr. that the Lyrica was not helping. He increased the dosage to 300 mg. a day. I have to see him again in early December.

    Since your dosage has been increased, watch out for side effects which are more likely when the dose is higher. If you experience side effects and/or no help with the pain, come off lyrica and avoid any other nerve drug.
