Hi all! You probably don't remember me as I haven't been around in a while but I joined in July 2003 after at least 6 months, maybe more of CONSTANT calf twitching (right calf) and roaming twitches elsewhere. I just want to be a voice of encouragement. I still half 24/7 calf twitches. They...

Peg! Hi! You are describing my symptoms EXACTLY which is always a bit of a relief to hear since I never seem to find anyone with an exact match and that keeps my mind active sometimes. I have HUGE and CONSTANT calf twitches and have had calf twitches for about 2 years now. 2 normal EMG's. 2...

Hi all! Last time I tried to ask a poll question I did something wrong. Hopefully this will work. I would like to know how many of you smoke cigarettes? I know some of you do. I have the nasty habit myself and I am curious if this may aggravate BFS. Actually, I am sure it does. When my...
