Involentary Finger/Leg Jerks

[holisticdriver]

just wanted to ask this also, do any of you get this?? quite often ill be sitting or laying on my back and my right index finger moves involentary, kind of like a jerk or my feet or legs jerk, this sometimes is after I get what feels like somebody as if somebody prodded my foot with a pin and the "jerk" is a shock reaction. Like I said the pin feeling only happens sometimes and usually the jerks happen randomly on their own

Yes, I get that in my index fingers. What I have noticed is thats where the fascics show up on a "permanent basis" next. A few weeks after it started I got the fascics in my hands which makes my fingers twitch, particularly the ring finger on my left hand.

I get that too from time to time. Common in BFS!

I get the pin *beep* all the time - I had a really big "stab" last night in my foot and my leg jerked so hard I kicked the cat off the bed - he wasn't very amused.

Anxiety related.

Uber, when I read your posts about additional sympthomps (jerks, loss of coordination) I feel like somebody would tell about me 6 months ago when I was in my worst period of ALS fear.

And one more - with clean MRI you don't have MS. MRI is a golden test for MS and if it is clean MS is ruled out.

regards
M.

Jen, I developed RLS about five months ago. It kept me awake for about a week, then I got used to it. I started getting twitches all over, starting in my chin, which I HOPE are BFS, a week ago. My mother has had RLS since she was a teenager. So far I'm the first twitcher in my family that I know about. I'm a very high-stress, anxious person, so I imagine the two might have some relationship.

This forum helps a lot to keep me from freaking every time I get a twitch in a new place.

Hey maybe there is a corrolation...I'm a rather anxious person myself. Try not to freak out. It takes time to get used to the twitching though.

Hey Uber,
Check out my reply under "blown away" posting. I definitely get the involuntary movements.
