Hello, I started with occasional muscle spasms of my lower lip back in May and didn't think much of it. Finally in July, I started realizing this could be a problem as it happened daily and for sometimes hours. Saw a neuro three weeks ago who did a neurological exam and said it was normal. Had an MRI because he was looking for brain stem tumor. Don't want to worry anyone, so to explain, I had melanoma and my twitch was only in one place for months, that is why he felt it necessary to do the mri. My lower lip spasm was bilateral which he said was odd too. It also was a continual, strong, bilateral quick twitch that lasted for hours sometimes. I videoed it on my iphone and he said he's never seen anything like it. That kind of worried me since he is about 60 years old, associated with a reputable teaching hospital as an associate clinical professor and is a specialist in motor problems. Anyway.... Since my neuro appointment three weeks ago, I have developed random, frequent single twitches all over my body (when I am sitting still or trying to go to sleep). I'm talking FREQUENT... like I started counting once and it was like 10 in two minutes. I'm guessing stress?? The twitching can happen in both thighs, calfs, arms, hips, butt, hand, etc... Also just noticed when I look really closely my upper lip is very lightly spasming like my lower lip does except it seems continual. Very light and I don't feel it. With all these twitches, I am worried about the EMG. Is there any way possible that it could be negative even with all this twitching?
