arm twitching

[Emma]

Can MS cause muscle twitching in the arm? Iv posted here before about my face muscles twitching. I am waiting to see a neuro about it.

But today my tricep started twitching, its been going mad for ages. I hope this isnt that same thing thats causeing my face to twitch.

Hi!

Arms and faces can twitch for a variety of reasons. It is best to see a neurologist and hopefully get some help.

I saw a license plate the other day that said "TWITCHY". I figured it was either a fellow MSer or perhaps a Parkinsons patient.

Anyway, you can request CNS depressants to control twitches. But I am not a doctor, so can only offer hope.

Hope you get to feeling yourself again. :)

Can you tell me what the variety of reasons that muscles twitch are please??

My calf starting twitching today and its developed into a sort of muscle spasm cramp or something.

Feels like theres something alive moving about in there. Also eye twitching again today and odd little twitches around body from time to time.

Concerned about MS because I had ON before. Are muscle twitches not a symptom of MS?

I wont get to see the neuro for a month or so.
