Is the twitching occurring just under the skin and is it on both sides or one side of the body? Apparently the twitching can be mistaken for ALS when it actually might be multifocal motor neuropathy. I guess a skin punch biopsy should tell you if you have sfpn. Since you said you have all the symptoms of neuropathy, can you say what are they specifically, I mean besides the twitching? Are you having much pain? Hank

Hank, I’ve been dx with peripheral neuropathy. It’s much worse in my right leg than my left. The doctor told me it couldn’t be. It would be the same in both. I quit going to him. My symptoms are SEVERE burning in legs and feet. Often weakness also. I’ve tried taking the meds and had terrible reactions. Do you have any suggestions what I should do now? I’m 74 and don’t know how much longer I can stand the pain. I do see a pain specialist and take pain pills. Thank you for any comments you have for me.
