Default Flex - I hope this helps.

Hey FlexMissile99,

I am sorry to hear that you are going through that. Sculptor44 mentioned the detail you have of your symptoms. I think that it is good to keep a record of that sort of thing (if you know what it is or not). I believe it helps with treatment. I am not a doctor, nor do I know if this information will be helpful. You described how you were having muscle twitches and I found this article on muscle twitches and some of the causes of them.

[I was unable to add a link, but if you use a search engine and put in: "Muscle Twitch (Myoclonus): Types, Causes, Diagnosis & Treatment" and if something from Cleveland clinic came up and that is what I am referencing] **I have no ties with them, but it seemed like a reputable source.

Perhaps, something in the article will be beneficial to you.

Flex, I hope that a doctor does accurately diagnose what you are going through and give you an effective treatment to stop it.

And lastly, I hope it is not this, but has “gullain-barre syndrome” been ruled out?

Johnn
