Default Fasiculations

Hi,

I think that is the techincal term for these insane muscle twitches. Can anyone explain them to me and how they relate to PN? I've had them in my lower legs since the onset of my PN. 24 hours a day, my leg muscles twitch. It doesn't hurt, it's just annoying. My nerve conduction test result indicated small fiber axonal neuropathy...is this consistant ith that. Or is the fasiculations more like motor neuropathy? I also have horrible nightime cramps for which I take baclofen. But this is not Restless Leg Syndrome...I don't have the classic symptoms of needing to stand and getting relief by standing.

They recently have started in my upper legs so I am concerned about it spreading. Any insight you can give me, I would appreciate....

Ann
