First off, I wanna say thank y’all for being so patient and helpful with your answers to questions and concerns that probably seem asinine or unreasonable.
Okay, so I began experiencing a twitching in my left foot, that was sometimes isolated to the crown of my foot, but oftentimes moves my big toe a bit. It lasts maybe 5 minutes during an “attack” and then ceases for a while only to return later, Usually while sitting or lying down. So then about a week ago I noticed that other parts of my body would kinda spasm. My thigh in a spot, then my calf, maybe near my rib and kneecaps. They do not hurt and they usually don’t last long. They’re like, one and done for the day.
I haven’t experienced any muscle loss, I can stand on my toes and my heels. Pick things up. Talk. I don’t experience any fatigue, other than the kind from working with kids.
I read through the “read before posting” and it was very calming and insightful, and I’m so grateful that someone spent the time to write that all out. But it’s just this insane fear that I cannot shake that I’m going to wake up one morning and not be able to walk on that foot anymore. And then slowly it’ll progress to other areas of my body. I’ve read about BFS and it could absolutely be that. Or just anxiety about it. But I just cannot shake this fear lately.
