Hi Melissa -
Electromyography (EMG) is a test that checks the health of the muscles and the nerves that control the muscles. EMG is most often used when people have symptoms of weakness, and examination shows impaired muscle strength. It can help to tell the difference between muscle weakness caused by injury of a nerve attached to a muscle and weakness due to neurologic disorders.
You will have to make your own decision as to whether this would be the right test for you. In any case, you should see a health care provider soon so you can get more answers.
