Twitching Episodes - Causes and Cures?

[Skittleborg]

Can any of you feel major twitching episodes coming on? Mine come and go. They never really go, they are just down to very few per day. Anyway, last night while in bed, I suddenly felt very strange, I felt like I had a sudden burst of tension or aggrivation, for no reason. It actually felt like my nervous system was short circuting. I took a Xanax, and went to sleep. By morning my twitching was in full bloom.

Does anyone else experience this waxing and waning of symptoms?? Are there triggers for you?

Thanks.

My twitches just start without warning, like going from "0-60" - then, a couple of days later, i hardly get any. I never get any warning signals.

I get no warning signals either. Mine are worse first thing in the morning when Im still lying in bed. I get about 200/day sometimes and other times only about 20. No rhyme or reason other than an increase in twitches when physically active (ie...Coaching sons 5 yr old soccer games).

20-200 twitches a day should not worry you. When my fasc. started (3/02)I got them into the 100.000's. I had an increase of fasc for some six month, since then they fluctuate quite a bit. try to keep yourself busy and you will see that you barely notice twitches anymore, d especially if they range between 20-200.
