Yes, I do get that also. I just asked my brother yesterday, who used to get the twitches alot, if he would get a 'flare up' after taking a shower, which I did. I figured a hot shower, or a hot tub would help calm them down, but both of those did the opposite for me.
Also, I was wondering if any of you have this symptom-----I started out twitching in my right thumb/forefinger area, and then that kind of stopped after a few days, this was about a month ago. Then, that is when the twitches started in other parts of my body. Now, today, I thought I was having a pretty good day, not feeling too many twitches on my legs, etc., and then I got a bad one again on my hand where it all started a month ago. I was distressed by this, because I thought that hand thing started cause I was carrying some heavy bags that day, and now if it is doing this again, I guess that kind of does away with that theory. I figured that it started there, kind of freaked me out, and that might have been why the twitches started in a widepsread way. That is even what the first doctor told me. But, now if this hand is firing up again, that would mean that the benign fasciculation thing would be more unlikely, wouldn't you think? Nothing makes sense with these things. I was just wondering if any of you have experienced that, where they kind of are bad in a certain area, and then go to another area, and stay there for a while. I thought that might sound more like ALS, but who knows. Anyway, thanks! Val
