I have had the exact same issue you have mentioned for almost the past 20 years. They come and go in intensity. I have had multiple EMG/NCS and a bunch of blood work ran. I was told I had benign fasciculation syndrome. I also developed idiopathic peripheral neuropathy of my feet about three years ago. Not sure if they’re related, but I believe they are. As long as you don’t have any weakness, I would not worry about them. Still get everything checked out for peace of mind.

My idiopathic polyneuropathy hit first, so almost a 180 from your experience. I've had both for almost two years now. Everything hit suddenly in February 2023 after other little minor incidents. The fasciculations have been strange in my torso because they started heavy in my back and have migrated mostly to my abdomen. The PRC taught me to just ignore them, so I try to until I get a severe one that is painful or, what I presume, is waking me up at night.
