I am curious because I too had fasciculations starting on a very precise date (29 November 2007) but I had a car crash on that date, so there is a pretty obvious explanation as to why I had them afterwards but, to quote you, "nary a fasciculation in site before that exact date".

CS
I have (benign) muscle fasciculations that started with my (benign) abnormal sensations and (benign) neuro pain. Notice I use the word benign sarcastically. My doc loves that word too, thinks it gets him off the hook. He should live with all this benign stuff!

Does benign mean it won't progress, or does it mean we won't die from it???
Can abnormal neuro pain sensations really be classified as benign??? Idiopathic maybe, but benign?
