I know that the title of my thread is a little on the vague side, so I apologize for that. I know that many kind members here have taken some of their precious time to answer me in the past and for that I am very grateful, I know that I come back from time to time but your answers really do help me center myself when I get too far off the rails.
my twitching now seems mostly confined to my calves and arches with occasional incidences elsewhere. Some days are better than others and for spells I even seem to get a large degree of relief. However I have been having these deep aches and pains in my body, usually in my hands fingers and arms, though from time to time in the legs. They are odd in that they come for a few minutes pass and then come again, mot often in the fingers and hands and on occasion are sharp.
I also have been waking sometimes with a deep pain in a perfect circle in the palm of one or both hands, it always seems to dissipate shortly after waking, today it was in both hands and the left burned and tingled for a few moments after. Sometimes these feelings also few like a bit of tightness. It also seems that my muscles will tremor or ratchet when moving in certain ranges or moving slowly. My legs will also have an electric or crawly sensation when having a bad twitchy day.
My muscles also seem to feel tired somewhat easily though I honestly have not worked out in probably two months. Sometimes I also will catch a little when swallowing a drink, and my jaw and back if my neck will feel tired sometime when eating or speaking for a time. I also have been having a tight feeling in my neck and pain in my lower back sometimes.
Phew. Ok deep breath time, I think that is everything. Once again I am sorry to bother y'all, I feel guilty asking as many times as you have all been so kind to answer me. The pain has me terrified that they are some sort of cramps. My mother and wife thinks that this is all stress related and my symptoms did flare up again I after I ended up with a cousin living on my couch and causing my pregnant wife and I no end of trouble. It just seems like so much for stress to be causing. Oh if it helps I also have four immediate relatives with fibromyalgia. Should I be worried about all of this? At least about what we all know I am afraid it is. I mean just the other day I was able to practice martial arts for an hour and then do 45 mins of sparring, and this has been going on for almost a year, surely those are good signs?
Once again thank you all for listening, any comments or thoughts are appreciated, even if you just drop in to tell me I am a total toon.
