Yep, I have the crawley feeling in both calves. I've had it since the beginning and notice it particularly when I get into bed at night and try and relax. I also notice it sometimes at my desk while typing on the computer. It is interesting because I never heard of it before I experienced it...

I went through this same exact "freak episode". It is perfectly normal for the indentation between your pinky and your ring finger to be bigger than the others. I actually presented that specific thing to my neuro last summer....normal. Relax!

GinniferLynne, I noticed in a past post you stated daytime jerking is benign. Did your neuro tell you that? I'm just really freaked out about this. It is not like really huge jerks where I could kick someone but little ones like my ankle will move or my finger. I get them at night also. It is...

OK, I am going on a year in April with this thing, but I wanted to ask the Board a question. Has anyone experienced quick head jerks. I especially notice it when I am waking up in the morning. These movement things scare me into thinking it is more than BFS, but still too early to know what...

I agree with Morris_M. Your symptoms sound like classic BFS. When mine started, I had all of the same symptoms you explain and they seemed to get worse the more I worried. Believe me, the doctor would know if something was really wrong the minute you walked in. The neuro will confirm...

I'd say it's the extreme stretchiness. Like the other day when I turned into a parachute and saved my children when our plane blew up. Oh wait, sorry, that wasn't me, that was Elastigirl. :LOL: Okay, if you're talking about moi, it depends on when you ask. This week it's been jaw muscles that...

I have it. It comes and goes. Others have too.

I hesitated to post this question because I try and keep positive on this Board, but my symptoms have been very exaggerated over the past couple of weeks - the twitching is EVERYWHERE, my lips, cheeks, all parts of my legs...... and I believe I am having slight memory problems and it is really...

I don't have it anymore (knock on wood), but during my worst anxiety, I had it really bad and it lasted about 6 weeks. At one point in the middle of the night, I got up from bed and went in my shower and just stood there and let the shower water hit the back of my head and neck. After that, I...

At the onset of my symptoms I had terrible pain and burning in the back of my neck. It kept me up and got worse when I would lay down to try and sleep. It seems to have stopped for now.

I have always had health anxiety to some degree, but it got much worse after I had a questionable mammogram last year, which fortunately turned out to be alright. After that and all of these symptoms, that is what triggered my fear of just about everything it COULD be. I worry(ied) about...

Basso, why doesn't your comment surprise me?? Anyway, while my twitches (as of now) don't disrupt my sleep, they do cause me alot of anxiety in the morning because I get the wrist (hand) twitches when I wake up in the morning if I lay in bed for awhile. Once I get up and get in the shower and...

This morning I had what turned out to be my last scheduled neuro visit. I have been seeing her regularly about every 45 to 60 days since my symptoms began in April. Started off this morning about discussing symptoms -continuing, those getting better and any new ones. We then moved on to the...

Have it too. I think it's normal. I saw a picture of tongue atrophy and believe me, if you saw it you'd know it. All is fine.....

In the 10 years I've been twitching I've never had a cold or virus

First of all let me start this by saying I know I will get a lashing from Basso for this, but this concerned me so I want to see if anyone else has experienced this? In the morning when I blow dry my hair, I hold my head upside down (no funny comments please), well, anyway, when I was looking...

My GP recommended and prescribed Trazodone for me at the beginning. I will say it did not work for me. I started to experience numbness, especially waking up at night and my whole tongue would be numb and that scared me to death, but that was also at the height of my anxiety at the very...

After having such a fallback this week with my anxiety and overall symptoms, I turned on the TV today and there it was, the Jerry Lewis Telethon. I watched for a bit and literally cried my eyes out. Then I saw a story of a family fighting ALS and felt completely helpless and then thought, wait...

Brenda, I also have a tremor, which my neuro indicates looks atypical essential tremor or an anxiety tremor in my hands. My left is worse than my right, but my neuro indicated that a Parkinson's tremor is very distinct and happens at rest, where mine happens when I hold my hands in front of me...

Has anyone ever gotten a facial spasm in their "smile lines" when they are outside squinting in the sun or if they smile. I was at my daughter's soccer game this weekend and noticed when I squinted, the left side of my face next to my mouth would start to quiver. Scared me very much. Of...
