Yesterday was better....but not today

[LKP1231]

Yesterday was the first day in a while my upper legs did not feel achy and tired. The twitching was only in my feet (it never stops there). Of course today, I'm back to twitchy legs and mild achiness though not as bad. I also think I saw my first true tongue twitches. Just a few little quick ones but there just the same. I had hope for a day. It was nice.

Even just one day of hope can change your thinking process and give you a break from the worry. It's baby steps but you will get there. Time is the great healer when it comes to BFS symptoms.

Do you slur your words?

If not -- its not a true tongue twitch.

I can see you are having a bad day today, but remember you had a good day yesterday.

ALS There are no more good days just slow bad ones.

So keep hold to that

Thanks to both of you

Rino468: Bull****. So according to you, he cannot have BFS with "true tongue twitch"?

[RIno468]

TwitchyDoc -- if you take that sentence in context then I suppose it does sound a little *beep*.

However if you follow LK's posts -- SHE -- panics about everything and is on high notice to her body and all the little oddities that we all have --- so I was just reassuring her that she did not see a tongue twitch at least a sinister one.

Yes yes I do get nervous bc of my abnormalities on my emg which I truly never expected. However I draw the line at looking at twitches of an als patient. So thanks for posting but I will not look at this video.

[TwitchyDoc]

This is not an ALS patient.

[LKP1231]

Oh. My apologies. One thing I've refrained from doing is looking up anything about it. Thank you.

My tongue does exactly the same as the one in the video. Not that often mind, once or twice a day for a few runs of twitches.
I try not to get too excited about it. It is a muscle, all my other muscles twitch so why should that be excempt.
Take care vx

Does speed of a twitch make a difference?
