Hello folks, I'm excited I found this board since I've been having an unusal problem for at least the last year and it happened again this afternoon so I decided to do something about it.
While I was in the bathroom, I could feel a similar twitch in my left bicep and because I was wearing a t-shirt, I rolled it up quickly and watched my bicep contract and release for the next 10 seconds or so. I walked into the computer room to search for a site like this and as I sat here it began to do it for another 3 seconds or so. I doesn't hurt, it actually feels like I have one of those electric shock muscle tone machines you see on informericals. I've used one before and the sensation is very similar. This twitching occurs in my neck muscles as well.
As far as putting a number on how often this happens, perhaps once a week in a fashion similar to what I described above. Please could anybody shed some light on what could be causing this. I'm afraid of what I might hear, but I'd rather not be in the dark. I'm an 18 year-old male and am in good shape.
First of all I just want to say "Welcome to the Boards"!! There are loads of great people here that love to help.
I'm not really sure what could be causing your muscle spasms. Have you thought about seeing a doctor? All I can think of is that maybe you have a pinched nerve somewhere.
I've had sorta like the same thing happen to me. My first symptom was two partial seizures, one involved my rt arm, the next involved my rt leg. Then the spasims started. Slowly at first, but enough for me to know "something just isn't right".
Have they increased in occurance or intensity? Any muscle cramping happening? Do they occur more often while resting or relaxing than when your active?
The answer for me is yes to all those questions.
Go see a doctor. Tell them any and all symptoms that you have. Write your symptoms down might help.
They have done test after test and I have yet to find out what "it" is. Best of luck to you and I hope that it turns out to be nothing.
That's interesting. I do seem to cramp easily doing things that are not really physically strenous at all. My friends think it's hilarious when I'm wrenching on my car and I pull a muscle in my leg or something and I play along, but it is annoying to say the least.
Honestly, yesterday's experience with my arm was the longest "twitch" I've ever had.
Not sure where to post this...weird muscle spasms
