Hi Prairie Cat. That sounds like a tough decision to have to make. On the one hand I've heard that EMDR can work wonders for trauma flashbacks, and on the other the therapy itself kind of necessitates having these uncomfortable flashbacks in order to work. But since you have C-PTSD, I would kind of assume you'd be having uncomfortable flashbacks at some point or another either way?

I would say to trust your gut on whether you want to try EMDR or not. I personally haven't, but that's not saying much since I haven't tried a lot... And if you're really not sure then I would bring it up the next time you go. I would just suggest, don't dwell on the worst case scenario going in to it. i.e. the people who get stuck ruminating on their trauma. There is always going to be a worst case in anything you do, so I wouldn't let that guide your decision.
