Most of these things started to clear up when I went on Gabapentin. Then the foot burning started.
It is interesting that quite a few others seem to have developed fairly similar symptoms to what I did. Yet, three neurologists including two neuromuscular specialists have said they can find no neurological cause for my symptoms.
I think a lot of you know just how I feel right now. Its frustrating and scary when you know something bad is going on inside of your body but the Doctors can't help you or don't even feel there's anything wrong with you.  |
Good to know. It just seemed like no one was mentioning this symptom and I was curious. I will try the magnesium again though I have tried some in the past. I do, however, think there is a difference between "everyone gets twitches" and the type of fasciculations that I experience and it sounds like others do too. True, everyone gets a twitch here and there, now and again but I am referring to a much more persistent type of fasciculation. Along with this, I too have experienced cramping in my feet - sometimes lasts all day and nothing improves it.
