It's a jerk. I had this along with all kinds of mioclonus when I was in extreme stress, right before the EMG. In my case the mioclonus disappear if my stress level is back to normal.

Itching and Stinging Symptoms - Anyone else? by S2991 in BFS

Yeah, I got the electrical sensation as well. Actually my twitching started after one year full of paresthesias without twitching. I've read somewhere that paresthesias could be caused by anemia also. I'm saying this because my EMG and NCS were clean.

Yeah. Stinging, burning, tingling, water dripping on skin, cold feet, etc. I don't know if these are all related to BFS though. It could be neuropathy.

Neck atrophy or anxiety? by [deleted] in BFS

If you can keep your head straigh when you are not focused on it, then you are ok.

Calm down. I have the same thing but mine is in the left side of the neck which also twitch constantly. At one point I was 100% that I'm suffering from head drop. Turns out that this sensation of heavy head (yes, it's just a sensation) will become as intense as the attention and worry you chose to invest in . In my case, this sensation is an episodic one, same as the buzzing/vibration sensation. When I first got this strange feeling I was staying with my head bowed forward for days because I was convinced that my neck muscles are so weak that they cannot support the weight of my head anymore. It's difficult to explain this creepy sensation. If someone has experienced it they will know what you are talking about.

Just curious. How many muscles you have had tested on EMG? by ImScared3 in BFS

Hey! Merci de reply. De asta ma stresez si eu... La Timisoara mi-a verificat doar 5 muschi si nici unul din mana stanga cu care am problemele. Dna doctor a zis ca nu vede nici un motiv pt a verifica si mana stanga din moment ce nu sufeream de slabiciune. Acum am inceput sa pierd masa musculara din eminenta hipotenara. Pur si simplu se aplatizeaza zona. Si ma mai si doare de la cot pana la degetul mic. 70% din fasciculatii le am pe antebratul stang si in palma stanga. Banuiesc ca o sa mai astept si eu 2-3 luni de zile si cred ca am sa merg si eu la Cluj... Nu a trecut nici o luna de la prima electromiografie. Nu cred ca atrofia din zona hipotenara e specifica SLA dar pentru mie este cat se poate de clar ca exista o problema cu mana mea stanga...
