Well, if you have a definite diagnosis of neuropathy, that can definitely cause the twitching.

Even if your labs say your are not deficient in magnesium-you still might want to try and give it a shot. I would recommend Natural Calm. It is a fizzy magnesium drink. You can start with a quarter dose and see how you do. Even if the cause is neuropathy-magnesium has been shown to help the damaged nerves communicate better with each other.

I use the lotion as well. That being said, I have a decent parody song of "Infatuation" by Rod Stewart, but mine is "Fasticulation"...

I get them....the question is what human being doesn't get twitches from time to time lol

I thought this was part of being a living, breathing organism. All jokes aside I go through spells where they can be bothersome. I've had this for years. Like MrsD said try magnesium. I drink V8 and throttle back on coffee and it helps.
