oh man, sorry that is upsetting you. your probably justbburning a whole in your hand by staring at it all the time :) sorry, weak attempt at humor. i hope you have a doc you can reach out to, someone who can confirm you are OK.

I get that twitching in the back of my right shoulder very frequently. its my new pal. Just yesterday i was getting hypnotized and lying on a couch (just for stress reduction), and it took forever because m shoulder kept twitching and making me laugh. Imagine this scene..."Imagine you are in...

I agree that it could be autoimmune.For someone like me, autoimmunity is likely induced by psych stress,such as purported hereI wish in my case that it had been a virus, as then I wouldn't feel like such a dumbass for not reducing my cortisol levels sooner. But it could have been viral, in that...

That puts it in a lot of perspective, BobJazzy, thanks. My twitches are amateur by comparison. For me, I just have a day where a muscle group will decide it is going to have the limelight, and then it will twitch for a few hours. Two days ago it was both of my shoulders. like rapid hiccups in my...

Yeah, denervation is from an injury. Reinervation is what you muscle does to compensate and heal. It's the signal wiring version of scar tissue, a compensating but imperfect body repair technique. With lower mnd this would happen continuously and progressively, which creates a distinct Emg...

As most of us that have been on this site for a while know, BFS is kind of a catch-all diagnosis. We all have the baseline of twitching, but after that there are any number of "extra" symptoms that plague us just as much as the twitching does. And even in the twitching, there is a large degree...

I agree with the posts above.For those who suspect an OCD form of health anxiety is making having twitches worse, one theory about OCD is that it is a soothing mechanism gone wrong. "Just making sure" is often the phrase that justifies the repeatd compulsion. But the reward for just making sure...

My left shoulder and hand were particularly sore yesterday. Deep ache is a good description. I agree with what to try, too.

I used to have bouts of eyelid twitch back in college. That was definitely stress, but was rare and only happened a few times.I don't remember twitching much between that decade and this one. I was the same as WindyCityGentleman, pain and twitching really started up at the same time. The last...

HI!!As all we know matt all of your symptoms are benign !! I hope that your visit at the mayo clinic can erase all of your anxiety :D)'

My legs just itch often. My dad says it runs in the family :)

What you guys describe is exactly what I get. Piriformis stretches are the best!

really interesting! Thanks for sharing. I'll need to see if I can start controlling my breathing, and see if anyone around here does this protocol.

Because everyone is different suggesting complex psychological conditions such as Somatoform disorders over the internet could be inaccurate at best. A diagnosis of such disorders requires clinical assessment. Even then it is a psychological perspective open to interpretation that exhibits...

I agree the main freakout factor is bulbar onset hypochondria ;)Also, have you ever seen how the brain devotes sensory detail to different body regions? Its pretty amusing. If you take the amount of somatosensory cortex devoted to body parts, you end up looking something like this: :LOL: Note...
