Hello.Just wondering what to expect from anyone who's been through it.
Is the needle painful?
Does it remain in the entire time?
Do they give results on the spot?

This test is to prove that the nerves are or aren't functioning properly?
What if you have no symptoms at then time of the test?Will it still show something abnornal?

Thank you.
