Default New symptom...????

----I swear that in the last couple of weeks I have noticed some jerky movements of my hands and legs. For example, yesterday I was sitting on a comfortable chair reading a book minding my own business when suddenly my right hand jumped - only once. It has now happened two or three time over the past week or so with the hands and the same has happened with the lower legs - almost imperceptibly at times, but enough to make me wonder!

My EMG/NCV was normal in August. MRI normal - everything normal!!!

I am in my eighth month of PN - so is this a natural progression of whatever is happening?? No known cause yet for the PN.

Also---for about six years I have been sore all over with lots of aches and pains of joints, muscle and skin, with increasing muscle fatigue during and after any exertion, heavy legs from time to time etc. I found out the other day that I have a torn tendon in my right shoulder - which has been painful along with everything else and is probably of two years duration. The Xray/US report also said that I have enthesopathy which is inflammation of the insertion points where tendons attach to the bone. As I've had a few tendinopathies of recent years I'm wondering if there is an underlying predisposition to enthesopathies and does anyone know if enthesopathies are related as a co-morbid condition, to any condition where PN is involved?

Just FYI...I suffer from PN and have those jumping movements quite frequently in both my hands and legs. I have seen other posters say they also have them, and I believe they are just part of this dreadful thing!
