Is BFS Causing My Twitches?

[blackAce14]

Hey guys was laying in bed tonight when I noticed a twitch in my left forearm which made my pinky jump. Is this normal with BFS or is this something else?

I am sorry but you keep asking the same questions over and over again...All you questions are the same... I mean, you can't make a topic for every mucles that twitches. Yes, it's just normal BFS, stop worrying! And try to accept that BFS exists!! Try to accept that muscles twitch for no purpose at àll..............

Let's be a little gentle with Joshaldo. He's new, and afraid, and I remember posting a single post for every question I had in the beginning as well. In fact, for me, I still feel like I need to ask the board when a new symptom appears (like my recent exercise intolerance experience), because it's still scary to me and I want to be reassured that it's part of BFS.Joshaldo, I know your pinky jumping is freaky and weird, but we have all had toes, fingers, etc. jump as a result of a strong twitch. You're okay I remember, before BFS officially started for me, when I was pregnant with my son, I had a twitching spell where my finger was just twitching and jumping up, and I was in a meeting with one of my clients. I was horrified because I had no clue what the heck was going on, and was embarrassed about it. Luckily, then, it went away after about a day, but it was pretty frightening when it happened.Mitra

If you makes you feel better those big THUMPERS or finger/arm moving twitches are a good sign. Those kind of twitches don't occur in ^%$. They are a pain in the butt though, when my BFS started my right pinky jerked for almost 3 weeks straight. Then stopped and hasn't started again since.

Yep absolutely Josh....big enough twitches make fingers and even toes move.......totally nothing to worry about... )

Yep, normal. In the beginnings , when I would even read EVERY POST here (... ...) I stumbled over a link here some neuromuscular specialist said about those big twitches/jerking etc, that this rules out ALS

BFS can cause twitching, big or small, in any muscle, at any time, in a variety of different intensities and frequencies.
