1. age: 32
2. gender: F
3. race: W
4. length of time: 3 months for twitching, however other strange symptoms such as muscle aches, joint pain, headaches, etc. started about 9 months ago.
5. I can't remember having anything specific at the onset, but my immune system seems weaker over the past few years... multiple cases of strep throat, sinus infections, flu, migraines, which I never had years ago. Migraines started with 1st pregnancy in 1997. Viral meningitis in July 1999. No IBS or gastro problems.
6. I have become more anxious and worrisome since I had my children.
7. MVP, Viral meningitis (1999), onset of migraines (1997).
8. Absolutely. My great aunt died of ALS at age 50. I did not know her, as she passed away before I was born, however I heard stories... very sad. I still read ALS sites and stories. I no longer think my symptoms follow the traditional onset of ALS, however neuro is in the process of conducting tests to rule out MS.
9. Started with fasciculations in my feet, along with crawly sensations, and some burning/tingling. Quickly progressed to entire body, within days.... calves, thighs, shoulders, hands, forearm, back, ribcage, lip... etc
10. most annoying is my lower left lip!

Happy twitching! God Bless.
