: I am so upset I could cry..I had an appt.for an emg today at the hospital..It was for 10:30a.m. well the Hospital called me at 9:50a.m.and said there was a big mistake that the doctors who do it are not even there today..So I rushed around for nothing!!!! I can't get one done now until Dec.23rd...I am pist to say the least..I have already been waiting for the test to be done for 3wks..So they gave me the # of the doctor's office to see if they can do it earlier then the 23rd well they don't have an appt.until jan...I am just fed up and want to get to the problem of my hands...I am a nursing assistant and I feel like I can't even lift the residents properly anymore...uggggg sorry for venting..

Hey Jen
This should make you feel better. I went to my GP in August & was diagnosed with Cubital Tunnel Syndrome. I'm STILL waiting to see the hand surgeon (12 Dec) & I'm told that if I need an EMG I could wait up to another 6 months (this is normal in the UK). If I need surgery, could be this time next year.

I didn't even have an EMG at all before my CTS surgery lol. Half the time these tests don't seem too accurate from what I've read on various sites anyway so it really ain't worth getting upset about. Just think - things could be far worse - you could be living in the UK lol.
