Thanks to anyone reading or replying to my thread. I have been lurking on here for a few months and have restrained myself from posting. Having witnessed the patience and compassion shown by the sites members and my growing concerns, I hope you don’t mind me posting.
I started with fasics/twitching in January 18, first on face then fairly widespread. These have gotten worse with time and now appear in most places. My left leg is the focal point, and almost continuously in my calf muscle.
I had a slight trauma to my left leg in early November, mild subluxation with muscle and possible nerve damage. There is mild pain in my leg, glutes, thigh etc, along with the constant twitching.
I have tried all the supplements, stretches, massage etc, twitching remains.
I have not noticed any obvious weakness or atrophy, I check constantly.
I was diagnosed with Minieres disease (ear problem) in May 17 and use 1.5 mg lorazepam at night to help with tinnitus and sleep.
I have become increasingly concerned with these symptoms and am aware I should see a Doctor. I am however quite terrified of what the diagnosis might be.
I am aware of BFS, but not convinced. Also read all the stickies, numerous times.
I also have a lot of creaking, cracking, popping joints, shoulders, knees, feet etc.
Thank you again if you have read this post. Your comments and insight are greatly appreciated.
