Okay, I'm 23 years old. I'm a male who currently lives in Alaska. I have been "fasciculating" for almost 2 years now. I have given up caffene (everything from chocolate to tea), i have very little stress, and still i "twitch" all day and night. Sometimes my toes will contract a full 90deg. to the left and when i wake up i cannot feel my ring or pinky fingers. My body sometimes feels like it's all (^c#ed up... but i would rather have a benign tumor than one that could kill me, and the same goes for fasciculations. Please realize how foolish it is to worry about having something as bad as ALS when its really more like a lazy eye, or alergies.
If people spent more time figuring out the cause of these, rather than the prognosis, maybe there would be less to talk about.

, your alive, besides, more people have died in car accidents then from fascicualtions!
All of this comming from one young man with some SERIOUS PNS issues.
