EMG Testing Process Bayfront

Here's Exactly What Happens During Testing

First, we’ll talk through your symptoms and medical history. We need to understand when your problems started, what makes them better or worse, and what treatments you’ve already tried.

During the nerve conduction study, we place small electrodes on your skin and send mild electrical pulses to measure how fast your nerves transmit signals. For the EMG portion, we use a thin needle electrode to check your muscle activity. Most patients say it feels like getting blood drawn.

The entire process typically takes 30-60 minutes depending on which nerves and muscles we’re testing. You’ll get your results the same day, along with a clear explanation of what we found and what it means for your treatment options.

Most patients find nerve and muscle testing much more comfortable than they expected. The nerve conduction study feels like small electrical pulses on your skin – similar to static electricity. The EMG portion involves thin needle electrodes that feel like getting blood drawn or acupuncture. The discomfort is brief and manageable. We take breaks as needed and explain everything as we go. Many patients say the relief of finally getting answers far outweighs any temporary discomfort during the test.
Nerve and muscle testing can diagnose a wide range of conditions including carpal tunnel syndrome, diabetic neuropathy, sciatica, herniated disc nerve compression, muscle disorders, peripheral neuropathy, and radiculopathy. The tests help us determine if your symptoms are caused by nerve damage, muscle problems, or issues where nerves connect to muscles. We can also identify the severity of the condition and track whether it’s getting better or worse over time. This information is crucial for developing an effective treatment plan.
The complete nerve and muscle testing typically takes 30-60 minutes, depending on which areas we’re evaluating. Simple tests for conditions like carpal tunnel might take 30 minutes, while comprehensive testing for multiple areas can take up to an hour. You’ll get your results immediately after testing. We will review the findings with you, explain what they mean in plain language, and discuss your treatment options. You won’t have to wait days or weeks wondering what’s wrong – you’ll leave with answers and a clear plan forward.
Most insurance plans cover EMG and nerve conduction studies when they’re medically necessary to diagnose your symptoms. We work with most major insurance providers and will verify your coverage before scheduling. Our billing team handles the insurance paperwork and will let you know about any out-of-pocket costs upfront. We believe cost shouldn’t prevent you from getting the answers you need, so we’re transparent about all fees and work with patients on payment options when needed.
Preparation is minimal for nerve and muscle testing. Avoid using lotions or oils on your skin the day of testing, as they can interfere with the electrodes. Wear comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the areas being tested. If you’re on blood thinners, let us know but don’t stop taking them unless your doctor specifically tells you to. You can eat normally and take your regular medications. The most important thing is to come prepared with a list of your symptoms, when they started, and what treatments you’ve tried so far.
Once we have your results, we’ll discuss all your treatment options based on what we found. This might include physical therapy, medications, injections, lifestyle changes, or referrals to other specialists if needed. We coordinate with your other doctors to make sure everyone is on the same page about your diagnosis and treatment plan. If surgery is recommended, you’ll have the detailed test results surgeons need to plan the best approach. We also provide follow-up testing when needed to track your progress and make sure treatments are working effectively.
