I so know what you’re going through…. It’s been almost 5 years for me with constant twitching…. In perspective about 20 twitches an hour in different places…. Sometimes even the sides of the bones of my knee and elbows….. mri… hosts of other tests such as an Ana for auto immune diseases… all normal…. No muscle weakness… I’ve actually got much stronger with my exercise routine… still twitching…all I can say is I don’t let it bother me anymore…. But at first I panicked thinking it was ALS or late onset MS .. sometimes BFS goes away on its own or be lifelong…. I narrowed down when my symptoms started… I had a ongoing tooth infection that I let slide for months before taking care of it

That’s exactly like me. Constant twitches and internal tremors. So frustrating. For me it’s only been a few months since I’ve really started to notice and become annoyed by it. I still have strength and feel fine except for lack of sleep due to the twitches interrupting my sleep quality. If I find anything new to try, I’ll be sure to update here
