Hello everyone.
So just a little info about me: 26, and I suffer from anxiety and depression.
2 weeks ago I started having a muscle twitch non stop above my left knee cap, that night of course I googled what it could be and you know what came up... I slowly stated to get very anxious. It kept on for 6 days. I saw my primary doctor because I also was having bad neck and back pain (I have always had some kind of pain but this was a lot worse) He didn’t seem to concern and gave me some muscle relaxers (I don’t believe they did much) My pain and twitching kept up so I saw him a few days later, he sent me to get x rays, they came back fine, just some scoliosis, but nothing that concerned the doctor.
A couple days later the one muscle twitching went away, but then I started having a lot of other ones all over my body (from my collarbone down) they will twitch a few times and then go away, but eventually come back in the same spot. I’m also having what feels like pain in my bones (but maybe that’s from all the anxiety tightening my bones)
If this is something like ALS , isn’t all of this a sudden? I’m just nervous that I’m making my self sick. And I’m scared to go back to the doctor. 
Also last November I found out I had a vitamin d deficiency, and were given supplements, I had blood test again a month ago but the doctor didn’t say anything about it being low, just to start taking over the counter supplements.
