Before I was diagnosed, I had a test called an EMG. They put electrodes on my
legs (since both are affected) and sent electric shocks to them. They also
stuck tiny pin needles into the muscles there to see how they would respond.
It sounds like something similar to what you are describing. I have heard
that it can be painful :-(, however, since I had lost most of the feeling in
my legs at that time, I did not experience any pain. Hope all goes well for
you.
