    Supplements and Drugs That Reduce or Prevent PEM (Post-Exertional Malaise)

    Certain music is really grating/engaging and that definitely triggers me faster. A competitive computer game with twitch movements is another quick route to mental exhaustion for me.

    Loneliness ...how do u cope

    ...ill person just for a short time, or longer if you can handle. I think that other live video where you don't have to interact but have the option could be good. For example live streams on Twitch where you could stay quiet if you want, or just type a message occasionally if you want, or speak.

    Poll: do you get symptoms similar to an "MS Hug"?

    ...lumps in the intercostal region on the left side massaging lumps and ligaments(some kind of horizontal ribbons) reduces them and cause twitches of muscle groups which eases breathing afterwards, but the effects doesn't last that long taking immune pushing meds moves the ring of pressure in...

    Any Dr. Systrom patients here? - Mestinon (Pyridostigmine bromide) and safety profile

    Mestinon, Huperzine A, and ParasymPlus all seem to boost acetylcholine in different ways. I couldn't say which of these would be appropriate for someone's orthostatic intolerance or exercise intolerance, since different people can have very different responses. Also, we should avoid confusing...

    Any Dr. Systrom patients here? - Mestinon (Pyridostigmine bromide) and safety profile

    ...receptor sites in the CNS. I think Huperzine or ParasymPlus should (theoretically) actually be better for ME/CFS than Mestinon because the central nervous system gets more acetylcholine without the muscles getting too much (and starting to twitch). What do you think about that Pyrrhus?

    Trigger Point Injections for Muscle Pain

    ...The skill and intuition of the practitioner makes a HUGE difference (I've been to three of them, only because my #1 PT travels a lot and isn't always available. Sadly, only one of the three is able to get the twitch response needed.). And yes, here's to non-bitchy, non-twitchy muscles! :balanced:

    ...https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6797918/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8043247/ But I do find the elicitation of a twitch response interesting, also, I would bet that the skill of the practitioner with dry needling makes a difference. Here is to non-bitchy muscles!!!!

    What is the b12 process like?

    ...never had a boost with B12 (injection or oral) as some people report, but I did have an interesting experience. I had developed a hemifacial twitch for about 6 months that pulled the left side of my mouth toward my ear. I was exploring surgery due to possible nerve entrapment resulting in...

    ...what's in the video occur only a couple of times a year. But when I start relaxing to go to sleep, several small muscles in my arms and legs twitch for a few seconds. It's very noticeable after walking around; within minutes to an hour of laying down, several small muscles in my legs twitch...

    Invasive procedures and getting worse

    ...cause I wasn't really there, but they had to sandbag my back with several hundred pounds on each side to make sure that I didnt so much as twitch while they were working in the spine .... it took years to fully recover from the tearing and stress on the muscles, and I still get back aches...

    Learn with me. Let's increase our knowledge of autoimmune causes of neurological symptoms. To gain tools to get the care we need.

    Once you get IV immunoglobulins, testing for antibodies doesn't work, because the rest will just tell you what antibodies the donors had, which can be anything. It sounds like you have a lot of information to make your case for insurance. It helps if you can review what the policy is for...

    ...that I thought maybe this is a different pathology. Now that they're starting back up together, I'm not sure. I had an involuntary muscle twitch today and those are associated with vgkc. I used to them get a long time ago randomly. I'm sure my little sleep is not helping. It's time for more...

    Super-crash after vac - neuroinflammation (?) and heightened nervous system

    Hello @judyinthesky . Sorry that you've having so much difficulty. Hey, perhaps some of it passed over the weekend, I sincerely hope so. I'm on Xanax myself (age 74) and want to ask you if you're taking it regularly or as much as you feel you need at any particular time? I'm surprised that...

    Purported cure for Latent Virus sustained ME/CFS by Joshua Leisk and Aline Nocon

    The firs time I took that product it quickly made me feel quite drunk and delirious for a while, and gave me a twitch in my eye temporarily, so possibly an immune activity in the nerves or brain, second and third time didn't cause this.

    Super-crash after vac - neuroinflammation (?) and heightened nervous system

If I don't take Xanax I will feel the nerves in my head twitch! *the attacks come randomly during the day but in particular after eating - which causes an issue with eating obviously. *I feel nerve activation...

I believe it's called myoclonic jerks. They are visible to others, but by the time I've reacted to the...

    How much dental work have you had done?

    ...we all know we don't have identical triggers, and I was wondering even if ended up not being a trigger for most folks, exactly what their relation is/was with dental restorations. I suspect there may also be differences depending on whether twitch mast cells are part of ones co-morbid...

    Dopamine blockage

    ...haven't tried the liposomal vitamin C.) Although when I try other things to increase my dopamine I get side effects. Tyrosine makes my eyes twitch. So maybe for me it is also a conversion issue esp. with those DBH polymorphisms. Dr Ben Lynch talks about how to upregulate and downregulate...

    Bruxism and Odd Tension in my Body

    ...muscle pathologies with rigidity (eg parkinsons). Ah, yes. I've had cramps in the past. Almost always low magnesium or potassium. I still get twitches, called fasiculations, every once in a while, but not as often as in the past. I've heard this. But I don't really understand how...

    Bruxism and Odd Tension in my Body

    Your cramping could have been a magnesium and or other electrolyte deficiencies that naturally corrected itself, maybe you made some diet changes that increased either your magnesium intake or helped your absorption.

    Bruxism and Odd Tension in my Body

    ...with this, over a year and a half ago, my legs used to cramp up terribly. In fact, all day long, from my ankles to my thighs, my muscles would twitch constantly all over the place. At that time, I was often awoken at night with horrible cramps in my calves and feet. Those went away somehow -...

    An Update on the Mestinon Clinical Trial

    I have POTS and at 3X a day it made my eyes and muscles around the eyes quiver and twitch then turned into a migraine headache. I couldn't read, watch TV or use the computer, not worth it and it did not make me feel better at all even at lower dosages.

    Stomach causes skipped beats!!
