Hi Guys,
Thank you for taking the time to reply. I do feel guilty when I look at so many selfless people who have been diagnosed who come on here to help allay other people's fears when living with the condition.

That was...
Hi Guys,

As I said in an early post, about 3 weeks ago, I started to get twitching in both calfs at the same time (worms under the skin) and with it pain, discomfort...
Thank you so much to those people who replied.
