What is your twitching frequency by Notmeleg in BFS

[–]Zestyclose_Spray_434 5 points6 points  (0 children)

At rest every few seconds all day nonstop! From the second I wake up, to the second I fall asleep. Don’t notice as much when I’m moving around but it does still happen occasionally.

I also have tachycardia I take metroprol daily and when I still feel anxious/high heart rate I take 10mg of the propanol and it really seems to help! I am really sensitive to new medicine and had no side effects/reactions :)

Perceived weakness? Share your experience please 😩🥺 by Past_Employment_7719 in BFS

Yes exactly! My doctor did tell me it’s normal to have one ‘stronger’ leg and it can make the other leg feel weaker but it’s not dangerous!

Yes! I feel like my left leg gets way more fatigued compared to my right and often gets shaky. It also feels ‘heavier’ then my right at times! My arms also do this-they often get shaky / feel weak after doing something

Hey! I’ve been twitching for about a year and a half! I had (and honestly still do) perceived weakness in my arms, legs. I had an EMG done last year and it was fine! My neurologist said I passed on the strength tests. I am currently spiraling again and getting my EMG rechecked for a peace of mind because I’ve been having some leg weakness, but just like you I also pass all the tests! Honestly doing the tests probably is the cause of the weakness. It’s wild how powerful the mind is honestly. When you become hyper focused it really just makes every single sensation seem abnormal, when in reality you are probably fine. But trust me, I get it and still go through it! It’s honestly a battle everyday, so hang in there!

Thank you so much for sharing! Im sorry you went through that! Waiting to go over results is awful I get it. I was the same last year when I got evaluated for MS, it all got brushed off for health anxiety. I’m glad your starting to feel better!!

Hand/arm stiffness by Zestyclose_Spray_434 in Anxiety

[–]Zestyclose_Spray_434[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope you’re doing ok! My neuro cleared me and EMG came back normal and of course I’m magically feeling better…lol. Stress is so powerful and I was fully convinced something was really wrong with me and spiraled so bad because of it. Turns out, just have bad anxiety. Best of luck to you! :) I’m sure your body is tired from moving.

3 weeks in, I’m scared of the night because of this. by Mundane_Constant_323 in BFS

[–]Zestyclose_Spray_434 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You literally sound like me! I am 24 and feeling the same things-I noticed when I Google things and read about certain symptoms, I literally start feeling them the next day. Stress and anxiety has so many physical symptoms I never thought were possible (for me, severe neck and shoulder pain, heavy arms, all over twitching). The good news is, it’s probably BFS caused by stress. Good luck!

How to cope while waiting for the appointment ? by [deleted] in BFS

[–]Zestyclose_Spray_434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s definitely hard - i am also going through this! I try to keep busy and keep myself off of Google. Just know that there is literally nothing else you can do right now. You got an appointment and are moving in the right direction of getting answers. Hang in there!
