Help: Twitching Problem at 23

[sprintGorill]

I am a 23 year old female with a twitching problem. 3 mos. ago i dropped a baby monitor on my toe and noticed it was twitching that night. I didnt think much about it until i noticed it more and more. When it twitches you can see the tendon pulling it up and it does it very fast for several minutes. Now, i have noticed that you can feel the tendon ( i think its the tendon) moving pretty much 24/7.

I am really worried because now i notice twitches on other parts of my body. My hands have also become very sore. It seems like they ache along with my forearms. I have seen a neuro who did not seem to worry about any of this. He only did the strength tests in the office. I do not have any weakness.

I guess I decided to join this forum for a little support and I am contimplating whether or not I should go for a second opinion..any suggestions? Thanks all!!! )

I had the same thing over a year ago, when my twiching began. Toes moving.At one point I had to drive with my shoe off to relieve my twitching. I don't twitch anymore in my feet. It only lasted a week or two. I don't think you need an emg, your fine as your neuro said. But if your to stress out about it, go have an emg, it will come out normal as the rest of the rest of us here have had. Also my hot spot last couple of months have been my hands and arms , also sore ,achiness, twitching fingers. Good luck.
