Bailee Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 Been experiencing twitching for the past 2 months. Say my pcp and she ran labs only thing low was my alkaline phosphatase and blood urea nitrogen (b.u.n) advised me to see my neurologist if everything came back relatively normal. Is this a pots thing? Not like tremors or spasms but like a nerve signal tapping making my leg and all randomly throughout my body. Not painful but annoying.

Pistol Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 @Bailee I do not personally have this symptom but there have been posts on here from people having muscle twitches. If you seach for twitching you should find a few older threads that may be helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted November 20, 2022 Report Share Posted November 20, 2022 Hi @Baileehave you looked up your meds to see if twitching is one of the side effects? I did just a run of this when i first started Mestition but did clear up as i adjusted to the med. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranga Posted November 22, 2022 Report Share Posted November 22, 2022 I have had twitching on and off in my face and my calves. Haven't really found the cause, but I have read it could be due vagus nerve issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailee Posted December 1, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2022 Update: I’ve also noticed that the twitching is more intense after my walking treadmill workout. My legs and thighs will start twitching like crazy almost like the nerve signals are firing rapidly. It last about 45 minutes to an hour. I also noticed I get almost like blood rush or pulsating feeling up my spin afterwards when I’m sitting and recovering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah Tee Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 I think the medical term is "fasciculations" so that might help when checking medication side effects or looking through research or past posts. I have read that benign fasciculation can come come on after exercise (for anyone). Just trying to remember whether I've had it too, but I usually exercise lying down these days so that reduces the intensity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
