Hi TLCS, I too had the muscle twitching problem specially in my left arm a couple of months or so ago. I approached my doctor here in Dubai and all he advised was that this condition of muscle twitching is quite common and it can happen without any cause. All that he advised me was that I should take some vitamin tablets and surprisingly, I do not have that problem since last week. The cause of this condition could be mental stress and anxiety. I do know and share with you the inconvenience of having this problem, it is difficult to sleep as our attention is constantly on that part of the muscle. During the course of this problem I started a regular walk and probably that too helped me in reducing the discomfort. Hope you get rid of this problem soon.

Thanks Vin...i am taking b12 and calcium..I was told by bestest girlfriend (she has fibro as well) that i may be short in the vitamin department. i wish it was only in one muscle but it was in my entire body and the twitches are more like jerking motions..it is very scary when you are walking down stairs and your leg just jerks out from under you!

I know what you mean Tori...I deal with this and the more stressed the worse it is but mine is more Restless Leg Syndrome.

Just know you aren't alone hun there are a bunch of us around!

Thanks Carol...do you do anything for the RLS...

Just try and keep the stress level down and try to remember to take a multivitamin (key word there is try) The stress levels are down and will come down even more come December 1st when I fly to Colorado to live.

I was having this trouble too, dr put me on a low dose of Fllexeril....(muscle relaxer).problem gone

I am a reflexologist, and 2 weeks ago started giving my elderly mom foot massages using essential oils. Her twitchng stopped each day I gave her a foot massage. The oils I used were Peace and Calming, Gentle Baby and Frankensence.
