Date: December 13th, 2017 2:38 AM Author: Rose Violent Fat Ankles Feces that is exactly where it started with me in the early 90s..I worked for a short time with someone who had a twitching eyelid...then I did seem to have some sort of flu or virus...made me tired for a couple days...then after that the eyelid started twitching...within a couple years it spread all over...then the paresthesias and cramps started...
I went to a doc in 95 and asked him about it, and he asked me whether i had had any cold sores...I said yes...
i no longer have cold sores, not for many years...
if it does spread, it's almost certainly BFS...don't worry about it...
however, it may just go away...or it may just remain as low level twitches that arise when you lose sleep or drink too much booze or caffeine.
don't worry about it, either way...also, don't worry about it becoming ALS...the chances of that are very slim.

Date: December 12th, 2017 3:15 PM Author: chocolate vigorous shrine I have it as well and I find it easily controlled by:
1. making sure I get enough of all electrolytes (magnesium, potassium and calcium). In winter, take vitamin d supplements as well so your body can use calcium.
2. Getting a lot of exercise. The fasciculations are strongly associated with weakening muscles, such as if you're a bodybuilder who stops lifting. |
