I have been twitching for 3 and a half years now! Wow. This board was so wonderful for me back when I need support, so I thought I might type up a little message they hopefully may calm a few down.Mine started with a finger twitch that just would not stop. I googled parkinsons and everything...

Bart, honesly I don't think that anything anybody tells you helps. It's like it goes through one eye (since your reading) and out the other. I really don't even know if I should waste my time today answering b/c I am sure you will come back with something about how it's different for YOU or...

Went to the neuro and just like I thought, she ordered an MRI of the brain. If this is normal, I am done with this crap. I have to be, to much of my life has been wasted on BFS, whatever the hell it is. I may or may not ever find the answers I am looking for, maybe it's mercury poisioning from...

I hope so. I have heard that it can take years to diagnose MS. I have almost every.single.symptom of MS, and instead of my fasculations getting better over the years, I have developed new ones. New, really scary ones. Ugg, I hate this.

I am so stressed out today. All my twitching started 2 1/2 yrs ago. When all this first started, I had a MRI of the brain and cervical spine. Tons of blood tests and 2 EMG's. All normal. I pretty much moved on (still twitched, buzzed, etc.-just didn't worry about it) and didn't have much anxiety...

"I'm 22 months into widespread twitching . I still twitch widespread but now I've got this very fine NON STOP twitch in my back, for 7 days at one place, you can hardly see it. I was always told that this kind of twitching is what als patients experience (here on the forum)"So what.... You have...

Bart,So what if it's in your back. I have tiny little twitching ALL THE TIME. I am pretty sure you have been on this board awhile. I have had fbs for almost 3 years, and I'm pretty posititve yours is at least 2 years right? I have twitching in my back so often and not once did I say goodbye b/c...

No, I haven't been to a chiropractor. I am not worried about ALS at all. I keep thinking it's MS that is progressing slowly.Just wondering if anyone else on here has experienced it as a part of bfs to ease my anxiety.

Jumping back on the banwagon here. I just recently started getting twitches that kinda have an electric shock feeling! It's honestly scaring the *beep* out of me. Has anyone else experienced this and had a normal bfs diagnosis? I noticed it around a couple of months ago, when I moved my right...

Thank you. I just wasen't sure if one of your parents HAD to have had it for their offspring to get it. IDK, no more googling it. I'm a lot more calm about it now, just still in the back of my mind.

I really don't even know why I came on this website yesterday, bordom I guess. Well, I stumbled across a post about chorea and someone responded to the other poster about how in the heck do they not know what this is?! Well, my fear of ALS is gone so I thought, hmm, let me just google it b/c...

For me, it will be 3 years in December since my first symptoms of BFS. In all honesty, I have good months and bad months. Some months I think to myself, ugh this is getting worse! Others, I hardly notice twitches and when I finally do, I will think, "Well, it's about time, it's been awhile." It...

Oh, and I can't go to the doctor until July b/c my husband just got a new job and our insurance does not start until 3 months after he has been working.

It is something I experience usually when I am tired or just concentrating hard. I am not worried about ALS AT ALL, it is a symptom of MS-which just started worrying me. I have had bfs for almost 3 years now, and I don't want to start this up again but I had an MRI 2 1/2 years ago, and for some...

After I work out mine are also very subtle. Lots of tingling also. Sucks, but it's just bfs.
