I've had this for 12 years..it can do very odd random things in the blink of an eye..feel free to contact me anytime with any questions I will help answer if I can..my email is (Email address can only be seen by the question and answer creators) people do not comprehend fibromyalgia at all including health care professionals...I did know how scary and debilitating it can be..that goes for anyone ever who suffers with this
I do have occasional twitching, and I hate it! I too would take aches and pains over twitching!,
I have twitching, tingling, electrical sensations, everything. It started that way. Then the pain, aches, vibrating. All of those sensory symptoms. Thought I had MS too. The twitching has gotten better as my anxiety lessened. I think too there’s a disorder called benign fasiculation syndrome that is just like Fibro. Yes kind of think they are the same. But they are also like Fibro in that they’re feelings that don’t really harm you. Just suck.
If your pain and muscle is treated with adequate dosage it can actually stop to keep very minimal the " Parkinson's mimick" mine is severe, a Dr. controlled for few years after I learned my body limitations that haulted until severe cold or over exurtion to limb. Flexrill a muscle relaxer and your pain managment should be able to get it under control..they just don't like what it takes to help but you wouldnt give a diabetic half meds or heart patient so why us?
The magnesium will help you might want to add some potassium as well. And topamax helps alot with my twitches.
