Nerve Testing Process Franjo

Simple Testing, Clear Results

Your appointment starts with a discussion about your symptoms, when they started, and how they’re affecting your daily life. This helps us determine which specific tests will provide the most useful information.

The actual testing involves placing small electrodes on your skin to measure how well your nerves and muscles are functioning. For nerve conduction studies, you’ll feel small electrical pulses that help map nerve pathways. EMG testing uses thin needles to measure muscle activity directly.

Most patients complete their testing within 45-60 minutes. You’ll receive your results the same day, along with a clear explanation of what the findings mean for your condition and treatment options. If additional imaging or specialist referrals are needed, we provide those recommendations immediately.

Comprehensive Nerve Muscle Evaluation

Complete Diagnostic Assessment

Your nerve and muscle testing includes both electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies, providing a complete picture of your neurological function. This combination identifies problems that single tests might miss.

The evaluation covers motor nerves that control muscle movement, sensory nerves that handle feeling and sensation, and muscle responses that indicate various disorders. Common conditions we diagnose include carpal tunnel syndrome, sciatica, diabetic neuropathy, and muscle disorders.

Results are interpreted immediately by our specialists who can distinguish between different types of nerve problems and recommend the most appropriate treatment approach. You’ll receive detailed documentation of findings that can be shared with other healthcare providers if needed.

The nerve conduction portion involves small electrical pulses that feel like brief static shocks. Most people describe it as mildly uncomfortable but not painful. EMG testing uses thin needles inserted into muscles, which feels similar to getting blood drawn. The entire process is well-tolerated by most patients, and any discomfort is temporary. The testing is completed quickly, and many patients say the relief of finally getting answers outweighs any minor discomfort during the procedure.
Most comprehensive nerve and muscle testing appointments are completed within 45-60 minutes. The exact time depends on which nerves and muscles need evaluation based on your symptoms. Simple tests for conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome may take 20-30 minutes, while more extensive evaluations for multiple areas can take up to 90 minutes. You’ll receive your results immediately after testing, so the entire appointment including consultation and results discussion typically takes about an hour.
Nerve and muscle testing can diagnose a wide range of conditions including carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar neuropathy, sciatica, diabetic neuropathy, pinched nerves, muscle disorders, and various forms of peripheral neuropathy. The tests can also identify nerve damage from injuries, determine the severity of existing conditions, and monitor progression over time. If you’re experiencing numbness, tingling, muscle weakness, or unexplained pain, these tests can often pinpoint the exact cause and location of the problem.
Most insurance plans cover nerve and muscle testing when it’s medically necessary to diagnose your symptoms. We work with major insurance providers and will verify your coverage before scheduling. You’ll know your expected costs upfront, including any copays or deductibles. For patients without insurance or those with high deductibles, payment plans and cash pricing options are available. The diagnostic information provided by these tests often prevents more expensive procedures later, making it a cost-effective investment in your health.
Preparation is minimal for most nerve and muscle testing. Avoid using lotions or oils on your skin the day of testing, as they can interfere with electrode placement. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows easy access to the areas being tested. If you’re taking blood-thinning medications, let our office know when scheduling. You can eat normally and take your regular medications unless specifically instructed otherwise. The most important preparation is bringing a list of your current symptoms and any previous test results related to your condition.
You’ll receive your test results immediately after the procedure is completed. Our specialist will review the findings with you during your appointment, explaining what the results mean in plain language and discussing treatment options. You’ll leave with a clear understanding of your diagnosis and next steps. Written reports are typically available the same day or within 24 hours if additional analysis is needed. If your primary care doctor or other specialists need copies of the results, we can send those immediately to coordinate your ongoing care.
