Hi FanI wrote you a pm. Dont want to hijack this thread.Peter

I'm 26, had some somatization disorders about two years prior to bfs

Baclofen only made me feel like being after 2-3 beers. I still twitched.

clonazepam decreases my twitching to almost zero (1-5 twitches a day). And yes - I know it's highly addictive

reinnervation in almost all poked muscles. traced back to my chemotherapy treatment with spinal injections in 2002. some slight radiculopathy.

I totally agree with Rodger. Had to take xanax yesterday evening after reading this. Now I'm thinking about taking a break from the board. Peter

OH! And they did NOT do the lip, cheek, chin...anything facial the first two times in the first year....they only did it this past time in May (one year anniv) because I have had horrible lip/tongue twitching since Oct of 09 and it was concerning me.

Hi MingIn what was your EMG 'dirty'? I ask because I was found to have denervation and reinnervation of my L quads muscle but that was over a year ago and I am still fine (apart from twitching and muscle pains etc...)CheersSimon

I've only had my right side and tongue done. When I asked neuro about the other side, she told that if I had als, it would be present everywhere. In fact my emg was quite dirty, but without any signs of mnd.

I just had them last week, big thumpers in tights. They went away after a few days, and suprisingly didn't even made anxious. I think I'm getting used to this stuff.

I'm back. The EMG showed just a slight denervation and a minor muscle damage. Neuro told me that it's probably due to my chemotherapy 8 years ago (leukemia). I had it injected into spinal cord aswell, so it's probably the cause. No fascics (although I've been twitching in my calves during the...
