      had this done 3 time's and I didn't find it painful, they couldn't find a nerve problem as they thought it was tennis elbow and it wasn't which eventually lead to the fibromyalgia diagnosis

      I've had it. Not too bad. Just anxiety inducing. It is uncomfortable if you don't like needles or don't have a decent pain tolerance.

      I've had it done several times. It's not painful, but can be uncomfortable. Usually takes about 20-30 min

      I had it done for carpal tunnel and it was uncomfortable but not excruciating.
