    Reassuring Story About Hot Spot

    Nice story. Sounds like a nice guy. This scared the crap outta me though. He then told me that she was walking four months ago, and now is in a wheel chair, cannot speak clearly and has no use of her upper body. Kim

    Caught Something from Daughter, Congested and No Decongestants

    Klonopin is calling my name, but as I've posted I'm off it for now. To be continued.... LOL. Yeah, it called my name a time or two today but I have refrained. I have a girl scout meeting with my daughter tonight. Don't want mom all hopped up on valium.... Jeesh Kim

    One Year of Twitching/Pains: Scared!

    Hi Barbo. I can so relate to what you have said in your post. This neuro crap has really taken me for a spin. And even though my neuro sx have subsided greatly, I am on some hyper vigilant health obsessive manifesto. Now, I am completely convinced I have or am going to get melanoma. Ofcourse...

    Pathogen Related Twitches: Believed

    Posts like these reaffirm my belief that these twitches are pathogen related. I was thinking the same thing. Something we are ingesting either via skin, air or food. Kim

    Stress and Twitching: Seven Years On

    I did ask the first neuro about the joint popping. He just said everything was stress related. He was basically a jerk. I did not ask the 2nd neuro about that specifically. But, I see many commenting about it. Also, I might add, when I go to yoga--I hear people cracking away. About the Xanax...

    Stress and Twitching: Seven Years On

    Yep, all sounds familar. My joints were popping like mad but have slowed down due to the fact ( I think) that I no longer run and lift weights. But, I too, get these fleeting pains or aches. Lately, it has been in my hands and wrists. My muscle twitching has pretty much stopped. But I have...

    Increased Twitching, Pain and Cramps

    Does he think it is some form of neuropathy? It may just be a flare and will calm done. Have you done anything to trigger it? I fear autoimmune malfunctions are becoming epidemic. I am convinced there is something in my environment. My neighbor two doors down has been having some problems...

    Increased Twitching, Pain and Cramps

    Neurontin is the drug of choice for most neuros. It wasn't made for nerve pain but I think epilepsy or seizures or something along those lines. Some claim it helps some get nothing from it. Kim

    Appointment with Neuro Tuesday

    Let us know how everything goes! I already know everything is going to be fine but am glad you are finally getting this. Hubbie had enough huh? My husband now tries to go with me to my dr appointments because he lacks my judgement (with good reason) and ability (with even better reason) to...

    Questioning Neuro Diagnosis of ALS

    If nothing else maybe this will give you some reassurance. With the state of the medical community today and malpractice suits being as prevalent as they are your neuro is not going to tell you that he is 100 percent certain you don't have ALS if he has even an inkling of the slightest...

    Twitching After Medical Problems

    you sound just like me. This is going to be long so bear with me, folks. First off before all this my life was really the best it has ever been. Great kids, good marriage, house in the 'burbs, etc. First I have to give a little background. I had had a few days where I had felt achey. Almost...

    Calf Twitching - Is it BFS or ALS?

    I have had that exact thing. The odd thing is it usually happens to me on an extremely hot day (I live in Phoenix). It feels like water splashing. First couple of times I brushed on my legs to feel for water. The weird thing is, I had this happen to me probably a year or two ago, long before...

    Suffering BFS and Anxiety Disorder

    Joint popping was a symptom I had that preceded all my other symptoms. I used to run 4 miles three days a week and work out with weights. Since I have stopped and am only doing yoga I have noticed my joing cracking has diminished. But it seemed like it came on intensly and suddenly. I don't...

    Sore Back and Ribs, Twitching & Pins/Needles

    I don't really belong here either. Twitching, which was never my biggest symptom to begin, with has pretty much ceased since I started taking some Xanax to deal with my anxiety. I still have all my other crap though, which more closely resembles a neuropathy of some sort. I have decided to take...

    Periods and Twitching: Any Experiences?

    Well, it is hard to say. I have always been very irregular and have only been off for two months. The only time I was ever regular was on the orthotrycycline. I hate not being able to take it but I guess at 35 I should not be taking it even in the healthiest of circumstances. I did not know you...

    My Experience With Symptoms Relief

    Though twitching was never miy biggest SX, when I started to take Xanax my twitching just about came to a screeching halt. And I starting sleeping through the night and not waking up with a panicky feeling as I had been. I still have all my other crap to deal with though. Kim
