Benign fasciculation syndrome (BFS)

This has happened to me too after my third vaccine in January of 2022. I’ve been to 3 neurologists, switched my GP and run every blood test under the sun. I’ve been told it’s benign fasciculation syndrome and fibromyalgia. I have had some relief from the pins and needles with upping my vitamin D. Still get cramps in my feet behind my knees and pain under my arms. It just sucks.

I was diagnosed with BFS which I think was caused by my second Pfizer vaccine, though that will never be acknowledged.
Since the vaccine many have later been diagnosed with cancer so maybe the body reacts differently and the immune system used for Covid has somehow changed the fighting of cancer cells.

My newest neurologist put me on carbamazepine, which helped, but I feared my hair loss was perhaps a side effect from the drug. I stopped taking the drug and the twitching came back.
