I have an appt today for the neuro. and everyone is always talking about their neuro exam. Is that when they test your reflexes, coordination, make you squeeze something, make you push against their hands, pull their hands in, finger to nose test and test your eyes? I want to know what to...

I will have to admit that I've been on this site looking this up off and on for the past three and a half years. My twitching started (at age 23) after I had a misscarriage and a rare case of toxemia. I had to wait a few months to go through extensive testing and was stressed to the max. The...

Boy, I have an appt. with a neurologist today, and I sure hope he has better bedside manners than your did!! You don't just tell somebody that without any explanation or reason why... some doctor's are just incredible. Anyway, I think that you are fine, especially after all the tests you've...

Renae, Thanks for thinking of me.. I hope my doctor is as good as Sandy's. There's nothing worse than having a doctor that gives you no feedback. I'm armed with alot of articles about Levaquin reactions.... so he doesn't think i'm making anything up.. And I'm going to mention BFS and see if he...

Don't start doubting the doctor!! If you even start to think like that, look back at your post!! The doctor knows - he wouldn't be a specialist if he didn't.. Trust him!!!!

Congratulations!!!! What a load off of your mind!! I am going crazy too because my appt. is tomorrow - I'm a wreck.

Well, how do you sleep at night? Are you awakened all through the night and never actually getting a good nights sleep? Stress can do that also. When I'm stressed, I sometimes just want to lay down. Depression can also do that. Do your muscles wake you up at night? Have you talked to your...

That sounds similar to what other people have told me. My friend would start to see lights and then half of her vision would be gone. She had to have help walking and usually had to go straight to bed for the day. My husband sees spots and then gets nauseous. Down for the day... Bright...

I couldn't stand it yesterday, so I saw my regular doctor. Told her about the twitching, when it started, and other symptoms. She thinks that the Levaquin that I was taking could be the culprit - it has a half life of up to three weeks in your body. She told me to try tonic water because the...

Hi everyone, I'm having a bad day and I need some kind words. My left foot is buzzing on the bottom, my left thigh is twitching and my thighs are kind of aching. Yesterday, my arms hurt but they seem OK today. I had the tingly burning feeling in my legs yesterday which is very uncomfortable...

I also get the buzzing feeling in my legs and arms. I thing alot of people do if you do a search on this site. Stress can do amazing things to your body. When I think about my symptoms,they become worse. And it's not always easy to chill out. Sometimes I twitch a lot , sometimes not much. I...

I can relate. My arms have been aching off and on and they are tingling. Which makes me more stressed out and twitch more. I didn't twitch much over the weekend because I kept busy, but the minute I start thinking about it, I start twitching. I think the aching is common - it seems to move...

story 1: As I said on National Public Radio in October 2001, I strongly believe that all people placed on these antibiotics should be warned about infrequent yet serious reactions that may cause joint, muscle, or tendon pain or rupture, nerve pain (burning, electrical sensations, tingling)...

My knees have been twitching a lot lately too. I also get the warm and tingly feeling in my thighs, but it usually only happens after I am walking and/or working out. The knee twitches are extremely annoying, but I'm sure they'll move on before too long.

Gee thanks Flash - I have a lot to look forward to!!! I look at my tongue alot already, so it has begun! BUt my tongue doesn't twitch constantly, although I think my throat does (or it's my pulse or stress). I wonder if other people look at this forum and think we are hypos? I mean, I think...
