Scared Newbie: Benign Fasiculations to Worse?

[Diego4Life]

I am new to this board and scared to death. Anyway I have to ask this question to anyone on here especially to the long time members.

Has anyone on this board who was diagnosed with benign fasiculations and a clean emg ever reported back that their condition worsened into something much more serious?

Thank you,

Nope, not to my knowledge and there are hundreds of threads dating back several years as proof!

Neither here or at the braintalk board. And of course there's the Mayo study that showed nobody going on to get anything serious...

I've been following this board for 3 years and this has never happened. Not once.

Also Swift_TaySwift20, I have been twitching for 10 years. I had a flare-up 6 months ago which concerned me so I went back to a different neuro. He said just a flare-up.

I think this kind of answers your question better, i.e 10 years of twitching suddenly worsened, but still not a serious disease.
