I developed BFS symptoms while recovering from a mononucleosis infection, age 32. I have/had a whole battery of neurological symptoms (like so many others here). I've been evaluated by neurologists whose opinion and expertise I trust. They completely agreed with me that I am experiencing an...

I get myoclonus jerks, together with the whole battery of BFS symptoms. Never had them before I got BFS.

My presenting symptoms were somewhat similar to yours. I came down with sudden parasthesia in my left thumb, which after a week or so rapidly spread to other fingers on both hands, especially at night. At this point I suspected carpal tunnel syndrome. In a day or two, some mild parasthesia...
