Long term muscle twitching, some pain, no help yet

I had an EMG three months after everything started on August 1st 2024–all clear. I was a wreck those first couple months. My symptoms started after a super mild COVID-19 infection and then the summer from hell ensued: my soul dog died, and lots of extreme other family related stress. Did you have a viral illness or major stress before the onset of twitches?

I had a crown replaced which gave me a lot of anxiety. I hate going to the dentist! I can remember shaking during the procedure. And then the next day I noticed the twitches. Bizarre

It all started so long ago, I can’t remember. I think I was sick before. In the last 2.5 years, I can say that having a notable viral illness and/or fever definitely increases the twitching. So does exercise (particularly in my legs). My being extra anxious about the possibility of ALS also increases frequency of twitches. It’s hard to find similar symptoms online. My twitching is daily (from a couple to a lot) and is all over though it tends to be more prevalent in one muscle group for a day or two and then moves on
