Hi, folks!
I stop by the NeuroMuscular forum occasionally... usually when my legs begin twitching at night and keeping me awake.

That said, since I'm checking in and saying "Hello," that means that my legs must have been twitchin' again... and they have. Mostly the muscles on the back of my right thigh... for no apparent reason, they'll start their happy dance, and annoy the bejeezus outta me. I've been advised that drinking pickle juice can help alleviate this, but I've consumed enough juice from emptied-out jars of pickles to float a cabin cruiser, eliciting looks of pure disgust from my family, but those twitchin' muscles keep on twitchin'...

Ah, well, I guess it's better than having an incurable case of hiccups...
