I had strong visible muscle spasms in the beginning and now have subtle fasciculations/twitching…. exercise makes it worse but I continue walking to take my mind off it; I pray one day it will go away and will never have any vaccine again ever… in the beginning I was researching what I have and that caused a lot of anxiety which doesn’t help… it’s 15 months since my second Pfizer vaccine and I am now trying to get on with a normal life. I have bought Cramp bark/magnesium supplements and will give that a try. Don’t want to take the sedative Clonazepam.
All the best..
Welcome @eabbott, I'm sorry to hear that the muscle twitches have been getting worse. I do think anxiety can worsen symptoms but I'm not a doctor. Since you also mentioned you have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), I thought you might find the following discussion helpful:

Have you discussed the twitches getting worse with your doctor?
