Hello GlowGreen,Thanks for the post! At this point in my life, I'm open to any possibilities of what this could be!! From what I read on this great site, fasiculations could be caused by so so many different things and it's hard to tell what's causing them! I don't drink any caffeine, no...

Well now on year number 9 here and still having the annoying twitches everywhere! A few months ago I did go thru a period where I didn't hardly twitch at all but now they are popping up more and more again.. So frustrating!! I still have been taking .5mg xanax for a long time but now feel they...

I never would have thought about kidneys but at this point im down to try anything. Im going to do some research on acupuncture in my area and go see one. I live about an hr from Pittsburgh Pa so im sure i can find a good one. Thanks for the advice ill keep you posted. :D)

Not to my knowledge. It seems like doctors arent too familiar with this condition. And if they are, they seem like its not a big deal. But if you find any docs that actually specialize in bfs please let me know. Thanks for the response!! Good luck!!

Hey Cobber, how are you. I also am a very healthy person but still have the twitch and slight anxiety issues. I eat healthy and for the past month or so have drasically cut back on sugars. I have seen improvement significantly on my twitching. I also have recently visited a chiro and he told me...

Any responses or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks in advance!!

Well i just wanted to post some changes i tried to see if they work or minimize my twitching. First, i cut way back on sugar, chocolate and havent had any caffeine for a very long time now. I have increased my veggy intake and drink ensure plus once or twice a day. My sleep pattern is not good...

One of the best, reassuring post i have ever read Dr. Will. Thanks for the info. I have a question that many of us on here may wonder about and i personally have read about. The question is, do u think there is any relation to bfs and herpes?? Either oral or genital. I have read that herpes lies...

Ive always been an athlete every since i was a kid. I played football, basketball and baseball. Im now 36 and like i mentioned earlier, have had these twitches for about 8 years. I wonder if anything i did in my younger years has anything to do with the twitching and possibly the degenerative...

Thank you so much for the info. I will definitely be looking into what u had suggested. Its kinda weird but i really do notice my twitches get worse from different things i eat or drink. For example, i just finished a gatorade and now im twitching. And i do twitch everywhere when im under alot...
