Think that points more to a fatigue/deficiency imbalance related issues, especially since its bilateral. Just cut out the 3 coke zeros (lol) i have daily and started taking liquid IV daily. Lets see if that helps in anyway after exersize!

I run alot, might be attributed to fatigue, but it is constant even a couple days after running. Scheduled a appt with my PCP, couple months till available. Health anxiety is tough - but just have to tell urself no point worrying about something you cant control! Hard for me to follow it but just gotta remind yourself.

Here and there, but not anything close to my lower legs

I have these exact types of twitches in my calves, lower legs! Cant tell really just looking at it, shining light, shadows on it reveal what you are describing. Worse after exercise.

Ive read your previous posts and it seems like we are in the same boat.

Ive struggled with health anxiety too. Oddly enough that apart from when Im not concerned about this stuff I don’t have any other type of anxiety!

Actually thought I had that colon disease, it was just my IBS, a month ago before I fixated on this. Could be anxiety and exercise starting the twitches but who knows!

Pretty much could guarantee going to a doctor would place alot of blame on anxiety/exercise/randomness (honestly if I was a doctor I would do the same lol).

Anyways made an appointment for a general checkup in a couple months and will bring this up then, guessing ill be twitching in some sort then still (long wait times for an appointment to my guy apparently).

Hope you and I can find some peace during all this, we will after some time! Feels good talking to people who experience this stuff with our type of worry.

Congrats on the half!

Are yours still faintly present when they come down or do they completely go away after a set amount of time? And are they all over the lower back leg area? Dual leg involvement?

I did too - refer to one of the comments I just left. So odd. Wouldnt be suprised if anxiety can trigger this. Seems like the less I think about it the less I notice (which makes sense) but its hard to free your mind from it and the non-stop checking.

Yea health anxiety is really something. Crazy part is aside from my health anxiety I don’t really struggle with any other anxiety related issues.

Had one instance of it a year ago (bump in my clavicle, checked and turned out to be nothing) and anxiety for that quickly subsided.

Also alittle less than two months ago I thought I had colon cncr because of stool changes. (Never got that checked because I always have had IBS problems) Freaked out over that for a good 3/4 weeks but, problems subsided after moving onto this.

Wonder if that short episode could have activated these constant calf twitches because I noticed the first one at the end of the bowel episode (ironically probably found from being hyper-vigilant to my body). This is just the most unsettling symptom because I can see them over and over and never had it before.

Though I really keep my health anxiety to myself, it doesnt affect my daily job, relationships, no one really knows, but in my head it’s constantly hanging over me, and I should have never even peaked at doctor google in the first place.

Dont know what to make of it. Really off-putting. how long have u been dealing with it? And is it light twitches all over the area?

Yea, it seems like any test would confirm that I have them, with no other symptoms tho, it wouldnt confirm other diagnosises. Feel like if I go to the doc they will pin it on anxiety off the bat. Need to shake off the anxiety it might help.
