I had no idea BFS could cause cramping. My twitching is mostly in the right leg still but it is appearing in the other leg frequently alongside areas in my torso like my abdomen and back somewhat frequently. My biggest concern isn’t even the twitching now it is the minor ache my right leg is feeling and bottom of foot pain/ache. I am hoping this does subside, just hard not knowing for sure. Thank you for replying as that does make me feel better there is another diagnosis this could be. I know ALS does not cause tingling or numbness and I’ve felt that on the occasion so I’m holding on that for hope.

I had quite a lot of cramping for a while, and the fasciculations were widespread. They would be in one area for a bit, then go to another, even in my scalp and eyelids. I had stiffness in the muscles as well. It gradually got better, and I only notice it occasionally now. It is really scary at first, especially when you have to wait so long to see the doctor. If you haven't yet, take a look at the BFS thread on this site. I think that will give you some encouragement as well.
