Celebrating 3 Years with Twitching

[luckyandy]

Well, I guess it's my turn to post one of these anniversary posts. Three years ago today I noticed my twitching for the first time. I'm still alive, the worrying has been much worse than the twitching ever could be. I have literally twitched 24/7 for three years straight now with no let up. 100's of twitches a minute especially in my calves and feet. I have muscle tightness and soreness also with my twitching. My forearms ache all the time.I don't know what has caused this, and am beginning to accept the fact that I never will. I worry little about ALS now, but still worry that the twitching and pain is a side effect of some currently undiagnosed health problem.Bottom line is I'm alive and can do everything I could 3 years ago. Worrying has been a waste of time and the stress has probably done more long term to my health than BFS ever could.To the newbies...please quit worrying, quit Googling, and just enjoy life.

Thanks for posting luckyandy...I have been twitching 24/7 for 5-6months, everyday, every minute, legs all the time, arms, head, well everywhere. I too get the forearm soreness and I most unfortunately get the worrying, but I trywith all ly mind not to. I love anniversary posts. I think anniversary posts should have its own separate area in the board index. A lot of older great anniversary posts easily get lost over time....but, when I read one of these, my worrying subsides a little.Again thanks LuckAdam for posting!
