Welcome @tbarbotte, It's good that you are doing your own research and learning as much as you can about your health conditions. Do the fasciculations seem worse after an activity of any sort? How soon is your appointment with a neurologist?

Thanks for the reply @johnbishop . No, my fasciculations are almost permanent in the calves, especially at rest (sitting, in bed...). I don't feel like it's more or less present after physical exercise...I really feel like it's there all the time ;). My EMG is scheduled in two weeks and I don't have a date for the MRI yet (3 months delay in my city...).
I don't know if these symptoms really correspond to a BFS or not. If that were the case (i suppose everyone prefers that here to ALS or besides a degenerative disease), I don't know how to understand the sequence of events to "live" with it...
