YES TO ALL THREE, VARYING IN DIFFERENT PLACES, ALL AT THE SAME TIME, BUT DEFINITELY ALL THREE AND ALL BFS.....

GREAT POST!! Great to read, esp that the reason people come to see him the most is for BFS. I dont feel as crazy now!! ;) Thanks,B

I'd say youre fine, like everyone else, and like my neuro told me, " your emg was normal," and in a stern voice, "its a VERRRRY sensitive test that wouldve picked up something if there had been any issues....." I'd say youre fine, find ways to control your anxiety until you become familiar with...

I agree with MarksmanS, its annoying as HELL, but benign. You are sooooo far in the clear with your timeline....I saw my Neuro the other day after 7 months of twitching, had another normal clinical exam, he kinda chuckled, smiled and said, "I think youre gonna be ok, see you in 4 months." I...

Excellent, excellent post. Thank you. We need more posts like this so people can really begin to learn and live with BFS instead of doubting its fortunate "benign"((I love the way you put it) connotation over and over and over till they've seen seven neuros and have done like ten emgs or...

I'd say youre ok.....as ok as any BFS'r is anyways. ;) I had the same questions for my neuro, and he just kept reiterating that the emg test and I quote "IS VERY SENSITIVE, AND WOULD HAVE PICKED UP SOMETHING." I repeat that to myself also when I doubt my BFS prognosis. I can feel things...

Sounds a lot like me. I was under extreme stress, anxiety, traveling, a virus/bad cold, and BOOM!! BFS in my legs, and then my hands, everywhere. It was definitely scary, of course, after looking on the web, things got worse. From my own experience and from reading neuro reports on this forum...

The bottom part of my left leg, lower calf area has been doing that "buzzing/vibrate" feeling for days now....

I get the lip buzzing/quiver every once in a while, weird by all means, but BFS nonetheless.

I've been having a hard spasm on and off on the outside of on my elbow right below the bony nob on the outside part of the elbow. It will tighten, suck in, release, sometimes a few times, happens at random, not really painfull, just a tightness, lasted a few weeks on and off, havent had it too...

I think its a matter of time, took me a few months of clinicals and getting my tests done to accept the BFS diag. The only thing that drives me nuts now is the new spots, new sensations thing, the seem to either move around or pop up anew weekly. However, perhaps as my coping skills get better...

I have something that sounds just like what you described....weird huh??!! I'm glad others have something similar.

Oh no, nononononono....you broke the cardinal rule!! Shame on you ;) I can understand that you had a very rough day with a funeral and all, but no more sights, about ANYTHING!! Again, if you get the urge to research, look up something about your baby coming, research new ways to help with...

You just got what sounds like the best reassurance you could get, and what it also sounds like, from the BEST!! I think BFS can affect ALL nerves as people have had everything from tingling,to buzzing,to odd sensory sensations, the works!! Type in tingling in the search tool and I bet you get...

I'm 28 and went through the same SCARES!! Believe me!! In fact, I started with my symptoms right around your time also(1st of OCT)!! Its been crazy and scary!! But I'm sure as time wears on and with all your reassurance from multiple resources and tests, sounds like youre fine, or at least its...

I'm very sorry for your loss, my condolences to your family and friends. I agree though, that often it isnt till something tragic occurs that we realize how fragile life is....and to literally enjoy and be thankfull for each and every day!! All the Best,Jeff

CONGRATS!! Probably the best news you could receive huh!!

Good Story!! and I like your approach, I'm doing the same in regards to diet, supplements, and exercise, and they seemed to have helped immensly with overall health and well being. It gives one a sense of control, and as I keep mentioning, could help a lot of people mangage thier symptoms and...

I also tend to have more twitches/issues on my left side vs my right. Have you been ill lately, too much exercise, bad eating habits, any new medications or anxiety pills. If no, go see a neuroligist or your doc for an evaluation, without weakness or anything, I'm sure youre ok, but seeing a...

the "butt falling off" my girlfriend would be so jealous!! ;) For the hands, hmmmmm....is it a certain part of your hand that tingles....I know that certain fingers tingling sometimes points to a certain nerve that could be pinched, ie: tingling in the ring and pinkie fingers brought on my...
