    Finding Support with Calf Twitches

    Conor.Are you sure its not just your pulse that causes your leg to rock back and forth when your legs are crossed.Check it out. Check your pulse at the same time.If I do it, with each beat, the leg moves just a bit.But even if this is not the case, without weakness, or atrophy, it does not mean...

    Finding Support with Calf Twitches

    Thanks for your input Mikey.We are pretty much the same. Twitching all the time. Last month I was doing really well also. I tuned it out, and actually thought things were going away. I even took a week or so and didnt visist this site. I thought I was kind of "moving on," and not obsessing over...

    Defining Clinical Weakness

    I have found dents in my legs, and worried over them as well.But when you really examine it, I think its more of a lack of fat on that side and maybe increased muscle definition.I worry less and less about them every day. Everyone has some asymmetry like this. We just dont notice it bc we dont...

    Neuro Appointment: Update and Plan

    Does anyone know what happens if too many twitchers are in the same place at the same time.It could be like crossing the streams in Ghostbusters.The bar might explode.I'm in anyway!

    Spanish Guy Suffering from Twitches

    Welcome Bart.Sounds to me like you definitely have BFS. 100%.Rest assured, you are well. The twitches will annoy you, but that's about it.You will find differing opinions on whether you need an EMG. personally I dont think so, especially after all this time has passed. You definitely do not have...

    Neuro Appointment: Update and Plan

    I grew up in NJ too. I live in NY now though. Maybe this is the common thread. All twitchers have a link to new jersey. Ha ha. I will refrain from toxic waste jokes, as I am actually a big fan of the state.But I am not particularly find of Corzine. Keith

    Calves Twitching 24/7

    Thanks Simon.I appreciate the input and thanks for sharing your neuro's input.It is illogical, but nonetheless I still perseverate. I actually have left quad and hamstring, as two seperate involved areas. hamstring is definitely more annoying- it feels really weird. The Quad looks scarier as it...

    Calves Twitching 24/7

    Simon, I dont worry about the calves either. Its the constant left thigh that I was writing about that bugs me.And behind the knee hamstring area.

    Calves Twitching 24/7

    Nigel. question for you. Not sure if you will see this as I am resurrecting an old post.You said your twitching spread to to behind your knee and thigh. Mine has as well and this worries me a bit.It is basically constant on the lateral part of my left leg. Its creepy looking on the thigh. Its at...

    New to Board: 8 Months of Fasciculations

    Hey Mtnbiker.I know this is a bit of an older post, but if it makes you feel any better, my calves are the same. Thats where it all started. Not sure why, but by the time I noticed it, both claves were going like crazy. hundreds of twitches a minute.It spread up my left leg. i now have constant...

    BFS and Racquetball - Normal Again?

    Ryan, I think you have it right. You have BFS. Most certainly. You probably dont even need to EMG, but a normal test may help you sleep better at night.Let us know how it goes, and then get back to life. I need to completely put this behind me as well. Im getting closer, but I obviously faulter...

    BFS and Racquetball - Normal Again?

    I think this BFS stuff must cause twitching in my brain.Last night I played racquetball for a good hour and 15 minutes. Worked up a good sweat, played hard. No problems. No weakness. Normal. I felt really good, and I was beginning to feel that I had really put this whole BFS thing behind...

    Curious About BFS Presentation

    I actually couldnt agree more you FantasticFurball.Its just easier said than done.People have written all types of amount of time you need to have BFS to be sure. I have read 3 months 6 months 1 year and even 5 years.Its all crap. There is no set time. There are no medical studies to support any...
