Hello everyone. My name is luke and I'm new to this board.
I have been experiencing all the common symptoms of BFS for only about 3 weeks, now. I saw my doctor over the matter, and he assured me that it probably wasn't anything serious. My own hypochondriatic research led me here. I hope you can help me...
I experience fasciculations all over my body, with concentrations in the thighs and triceps. Recently I discovered that I can make fasciculations occur regularly by flexing, then relaxing these muscles.
I flex a muscle for a few seconds, then relax it. About 5 seconds after flexing, the muscle will fasciculate for about 5-10 seconds, then stop.
Any other time, the fasciculations occur at random, and usually only fasciculate once. In other words, they only twitch once, and do not spasm for any length of time.
Is this normal?
Thanks
