    Hi Sarh4156 i feel for you i have had the same for 18 year now and mine goes to my toes which feels like i have kick the door frame 24. I think its when there put pins in your legs and put a current to see if the nerves are ok

    Hi Sarah,

     I had the emg and for me it was easy,no pain to mention.I don't know if it is because of numbness in legs or what but it went fine.I hope it is ok for you too,I would not worry to have it again.I don't know what an evoked potential is.Again,good luck to you.
