I had my EMG yesterday. Helpful hint: If anyone offers you a free EMG don't take it. That is one sucky test. Not only do they stick needles in your limbs (in my case, hands and arms) but they jolt your muscles with electroshock. Totally not fun.
Anyway, after all that gritting of teeth, I got good news. I have no neurologic problem that's causing my hand and wrist pain. In other words, no carpal tunnel syndrome. That would have sucked because the only permanent solution to that is surgery. So this morning I see a hand specialist and that's the last train stop on the line. If he can't tell me what's wrong or what to do then I just live with this.
Another update to come....
