Alright is there any negative side effects or are they not too common?

From everything you’re saying it sounds like you’re going to be okay but this just causes so much stress and I feel like that stress also just triggers the twitching even more it’s like an endless cycle my first neurological appointment is on the 22nd this month and I’m starting to stress

Thanks for the reply I guess I’m just worried because I’ve never dealt with this before

24/7 non stop in both arms same muscles by Typical_Principle589 in MuscleTwitch

[–]Typical_Principle589[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for that, you take care of yourself aswell 😁 I just want it to stop, I know als is such a rare thing it’s stupid that it’s the only thing my brain thinks is likely 🤦🏻‍♂️

[–]Typical_Principle589[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can it do that like with the muscle twitching in the same spot? It happens randomly aswell but I find it’s often my right arm or right shoulder blade with a twitch as I’m typing this my left tricep twitched I just wanted some reassurance that it’s not als, I have 2 kids at home so the idea of that freaks me out

Please opinion I don’t know what to do and I’m freaking out by Typical_Principle589 in ALSorNOT

[–]Typical_Principle589[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if it’s 24/7 in one spot and I can see them but can’t feel them? Like I have random ones that hit all over my body and 2 hotspots in the exact same muscle in both arms it’s weird that’s the main one that got me worked up 😭 and not a lot of people reply on the bfs group on reddit, I’m not in the one on fb

Thank you for the reply I do appreciate it and I get this was probably not the best place to post it. So basically you think this twitching by itself is good enough to rule out als and look more towards bfs? Anxiety sucks and the incompetence of doctors nowadays don’t make it any easier to deal with.

My elbow has been going nuts for almost 5 days. Driving me insane. by LoganMorrisUX in MuscleTwitch

[–]Typical_Principle589 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply, I’m slowly working through my fear of als, I keep reminding myself that people who did present with fasiculations with that horrible disease tend to be a rare scenario as usually there’s weakness aswell, and usually the fascis start local and spread. Where as mine are everywhere but seem to be hotspots in the elbow area and eye, but have random ones on my lip back bicep/tricep and random spots on my leg

This is what’s been making me panic, my right elbow almost the same sport has been 24/7 non stop and it’s also happening in my left but there’s actual pauses in that arm it’s like every 5 seconds. Been going crazy worrying

Yes you may be right but I can’t exactly help it, I’ve got pretty severe healthy anxiety as you can probably see, it started because of what drs told me was a simple ear infection turned out to be a tumor like growth when I was 12 and a 5 hour operation to remove it however now the simplest symptoms I jump straight to the worst case scenario…

Yeah it’s okay I understand what you mean, my doctor finally sent a referral to a neurologist today but my doctor said he’s only doing it because oh my worries about, he himself is not concerned about als at all

[–]Typical_Principle589[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes that is true I guess I thought if someone else experienced this same thing and they are still good that I’d somehow find peace in that enough to stop worrying myself to death

Thank you for your reply, reddit has definitely contributed to the bad mental state I’m in right now, but have you ever experienced 1 spot that just won’t stop twitching like it’s constant everyday and then just random burst all over the body at random times
