Twitching Worry HELP!

It could be something innocuous like BFS. I empathize with you since I went through basically the same experience with these symptoms. The only way to get peace of mind is to get a 4 limb EMG. In the meantime, there are other possible causes that can be ruled out with a simple blood test (various deficiencies and Lyme can cause similar symptoms). The hardest thing to do is not stress out or focus on the fasciculations because that tends to exacerbate the situation. I have BFS (which can only be diagnosed by ruling everything else out) and it is not fun but knowing that it isn't something worse is important.

@keithl56 Thank you for the reply, how are you doing now? As i mentioned in the previous comments of others who replied I continue to twitch, 4 months in. I did see a neurologist who did an emg and did find neuropathies but not what I fear. Im still on edge about it though. The constant twitching has me fearing that maybe i got the emg way early 🙁
