Hello everyone,
I am a new member to these forums and am overjoyed to have found this wonderful site! Recently, I noticed a muscle twitch in my leg one night and since then, I have been constantly monitoring my body for them. I know this may sound strange, but I feel like the more I look for them, the more they actually occur (is that even possible?). It's almost like I am anticipating them and that in-turn makes them occur...
Anyway, I have been having a lot of anxiety and concern about Multiple Sclerosis. My doctor does not seem concerned whatsoever, but I can't quite shake the fear.
My question is, what is the correlation between muscle twitching and Multiple Sclerosis? If it occurs during the disease, is it more localized or can it occur randomly all over one's body (like mine). Is it common in early stages or does it come later?
I honestly feel that I am okay, and that my twitching is heavily related to stress and anxiety, but I just can't quite shake the feeling of worry that has consumed me lately.
Any help or advice would be very much appreciated.
Thank you,
HypoKev
