Hi Sanje,Congratulations on the clean bill of health! I share many similar symptoms as you the buzzing, constant foot twitching and foot cramps. My clean EMG and neuro exam was over a year ago and since then the buzzing has subsided, most of the hot spots don't last for days on end anymore...

Very good to read about your appointment with the neurologist MrsRed. Not sure if should say congratulations since BCFS does suck but much better then what many of us fear! I do remember reading your post and thinking how terrible it must have been to lose your mother at such a young age...

That is great news Bibi! Sounds like your neuro has informed you have nothing to be nervous about. Instead of feeling nervous and you should do something to celebrate this weekend :D) Take care.

Thanks so much Gerard and Emmie for taking the time for your suggestions and advice, very much appreciated. I am sure I'll re-read this post when things are acting up.

Thanks for checking in as these types of posts are so reassuring! Happy to read your both 95% better. Any specific suggestions other then de-stress and sleep more? How did you get your anxiety under control and learn to accept "I'm a twitcher"? I'm fortunate for the times the symptoms are...

Sorry to jump in on these posts but that I wanted share I experienced my first tongue fasciculations today driving home from work. I felt a funny movement on my tongue and looked in the mirror at a red light. Right beside the tip of my tongue it was moving in and out rhythmically in the same...

Not migrating numbness for me but after I saw the neurologist for the first time back in October I've experienced numbness and tingling to my hands and fingers that wakes me up at night. Thanks for stopping in Tripper as I always wonder how others are doing and if their symptoms have hopefully...

Hey Jim, I agree eye twitches are so annoying! Since a young child I got little eyelid twitches but since BFS they are much more extreme. I've had those ones between the lid and eyebrow that go off like lightening bolts. My newest one is a small fine twitch to my upper lid that actually...

Sharing my vitamin B12 update: after supplementing for about 5 months my B12 level is up over 300 points to the middle range of normal. My vitamin D level went down 4 small points but it was already below normal. I guess it really was a long winter in Canada. With my Vit B12 up I would say my...

Hope you've gotten some rest Hx. No wonder your twitching is almost as bad as 3 years ago. That is a lot for one person to handle…caring for someone who is sick, moving and kids. Gosh I would need some rest too! Sounds like you need a weekend at a hotel spa just for you to relax, be pampered...

Both my feet can be alive like lightening bolts in the arches. My big toe will even be pulled away when my feet are twitching and camping. Worrisome at times but learning to truly ignore them. The less I focus on them the better they seem but I bet if look at them right now they are...

Hot spot for me too 80% of the time, somethings it causes my feet to cramp. It is annyoing but I'll have a bath, ask my husband for a foot massage and wear socks to bed if they are going really crazy!

Hi KC, Sorry to hear about your BFS flare up and but really good to read it's nothing like the last one. I can't comment on what your new normal will be but be assured many of us suffer from the unpredictable flare ups. It is important to learn what factors contribute to making your symptoms...

Hello Hx, I haven't had a dream like that but do wake up in a panic about the fear of MND that feels like a bad nightmare. I also wake up 2-3 times a week with numb hands. Sometimes they feel like fat sausages that are difficult to move. After a couple of shakes the feeling goes away. My...

Hi Violetmom, hope you've had a good day and sorry to hear the thigh twitch has brought you back to a dark place. These symptoms are such a roller coaster ride that with new changes bring back old fears. My suggestion is keep yourself busy, try not to focus on it, exercise (show yourself how...
