Can't blame you. That sounds like an awful thing to have to go through for nothing.
I know what you're talking about with the nerve needle. The one they put in my hip went to that same nerve, and it goes deep. Hurts like a sonofabitch, but I still love to watch it one the ultrasound. Also, the dead leg after surgery is nice, and lessens the amount of pain meds you need.
One time the navy corpsman hit the nerve above the femoral branch, and I couldn't feel my dick for a week. That was terrible, and I was worried for a good three days that ol' Michael's Jordan wasn't coming back.

Yikes! I've had that goddamned test done twice now, once on upper extremities, once on lower. I don't know that they could get me to do it again. I have to see a different neurologist in October, hopefully he'll have answers.
Fucking quacks.
