Elin, What have you been dx with? Have you an EMG or MRI or any other tests?..Jenn

No, these do not feel like pins and needles at all...Jenn

Sandra, Do you have any other symptoms? Do you get any pain, or do you get more twitches after exercise? How about, this is hard to describe, some people call them bug crawling sensations but I dont think mine are like that. I have these feelings all over my upperbody it is like a pencil...

I also have found articles that say the opposite and dispute that article, but ya know what I am not going to post it because I believe there are people that will get upset, and about now I really think you are not worth it and this is going to be my last post about this, actually I think this...

I do not see how Sir_Trouserz can bring all you people down by telling you the truth, how you feel and take the truth is on you. I know you all want to come to this forum and have us tell you, "ahhh, don't worry, it is nothing," well sorry, cannot do that. Sir_Trouserz is pointing out things...

I remember asking my Dr. if anxiety caused this, he laughed and said, NO. Now if you ask a shrink they will tell you the opposite. Reading that list alot of them describe how I feel when I AM HAVING a panic attack, there and then, not after it. Yes stress can do some things to the body, but...

Yes they both stopped and they were at the same time or I think the hoarseness might of came a week or two after, but had them both at the same time at one point. My slurred speech was like I could not get my tongue or facial muscles to move right and I was also getting nerve pain, little...

Ramona, Yes, I am going to pick some stevia up, I have been wanting to do that. I started using splenda maybe a year before BFS, and then stopped it once I got BFS and just started taking it again. I think I am going to stop using it again and see what happens..Thanks..Jenn

No, but I started using splenda again. Is there a connection that you are hearing? Jenn

I have my regular GP appt. tomorrow and she has to refer me to a cardio Dr. (because I just moved to El Paso so do not have one yet) to have him set up a time that I can have my EMG with someone from cardio there so they can turn my heart defib implant off so I can have the shocking part of the...

Thanks guys...I looked up on the hoffman test and it is not just the thumb it is any finger that moves. There was only one website that I found and it only gave definition of hoffman and it said the thumb moves. Neuro exam websites say the thumb and index finger, or any, but mainly look for...

Thanks Double D, but I just had my husband do a hoffman reflex on me and I failed, both hands. I did it on him and his is fine. When I flick my middle finger my index finger flexes, my thumb doesnt but index finger does and if there is a problem that is what is suppose to happen, the index or...

I dont know, the Dr. took my hand and braced it and he flicked my middle finger or one of the fingers, with his finger, he didnt tap it but flicked it (I didnt watch, to scared.lol) I dont know what he was looking at. I do know that most of my twitches are in my index fingers and thumb. My...

Thanks guys. No nothing changed except the sensations on my upperbody maybe have been a little stronger and that is what always has me concerned, especially with the ratchety muscle movement that you can planly see. My husband and I had to move to El Paso Texas for 9 months because he is in...

My index finger was the first thing to move, it jumped side to side, then my thumb. I still have this every so often, thumb worse though. There are times when I am holding something in a certain position, it knocks what I am holding out of my hand, something small anyway...Jenn
