    Welcome Back! Updates On Health & Twitches

    No weakness. I do tend to have a dull ache there a lot. I twitch there too. When I mentioned to my Neuro (July 2010) he didn't even look up at me. He just sat there, nodded his head and continued writing his notes. I asked him if he wanted to take a look at it and he said no. He was...

    24/7 Twitching For 8 Weeks!

    The mental and emotional acceptance of this condition is a marathon not a sprint. We have have our own time tables. I am 3 years in and it is still a struggle for me at times (only because I feel physically worn down all the time). There will be many ups and downs on your road to mental...

    Insurance & BFS: Any Experiences?

    Taurus,You're exactly right. This health scare has made me think about life in a whole new way. I would suggest everyone have some sort of life insurance regardless of your health. I wish I had secured a larger policy when I was younger so I would have accessed a lower rate. Unfortunately...

    Experiencing All-Over Body Vibrations?

    These are non stop for me. Sometimes I feel them more than others. I also attribute my muscle fatigue/sorenss to these. I have them for 2 1/2 years and they are bodywide, but mostly in my legs and arms. Klonopin has helped me with this symptom. My doctors say I'm healthy but "unique".CDC
