I don't think anyone here should ever get an EMG. All it is is a waste of money. If you hang around this board long enough you will realize that BFS follows a very predictable pattern and it always ends the same and nobody ever has anything actually wrong with them. Every person's story ends exactly the same. Whether you choose to plunk down $600 on an EMG or not, that is up to you, but in the end it won't change your BFS experience much. You are still going to have BFS afterwards, and then you will start worrying that you got the EMG too early. I have seen it hundreds of times.
Personally I would take the $600 and I would spend it on a vacation. It will probably help you more.

BFS FAQ:
1. No, that's not bulbar
2. No, the location doesn't matter
3. Yes, we have all had that symptom
4. No, you're not the exception
5. No, that's not ominous
6. No, you don't need an EMG
7. Yes, you will be fine
