Try posting around 9:00 am EST. I think the Dr. must check into the posts every morning at that time.
Christina, I'm just wondering how you managed to post two questions in a few days while I have been trying to post for a year and can never get one in?
hi, just wanted to mention. carpal tunnel sure will give you finger spasms. it sure does for me. plus mild spasms and twitching and jerking of my fingers and my wrists/lower arm. i sounded just like your concerns a few years ago. the more i dwelled on it, the worse i got! i bet soon as your baby is born, and you adjust, you'll be back to feeling fine.
good luck
justine
I occasionally have a vibrating feeling in my left ankle. Would that apply?
Justine - I can't tell you how thankful I am for your response. I am at my wits end with this. I am sure it is anxiety related. I appreciate your feedback very much! Christina
Also - I am not on any medications. Thank you!
Dear Christina:
As stated before, Parkinson's tremor is a resting tremor and your events are with action. In addition, the type of tremor is a pill rolloing tremor in Parkinson's and not what your experiencing. We have seen muscle fasciculations that move a joint that we have call benign fasciculations, and these have eventually stopped without reoccurrance in our patients. If your muscle has fasciculations and they are of high amplitude, then they will move a joint (the function of a muscle). Carpal tunnel is associated with pregnacy and your distribution of symptoms would fit a carpel tunnel (left hand pinky and ring finger). Restless leg is known to also occur during pregnacy. It might be a wise decision to see a neurologist had just get examined to confirm that what your experiencing is truely not Parkinson's.
Sincerely,
CCF Neuro MD
