Anything i can do to not have benign muscle fasciculations? it doesnt cause problems but can sometimes become annoying. been tested its just bmf

Probably not: It is best to just treat them as amusing variations on normal muscle function, and not to worry about anything else since you have been tested. Make sure you are getting plenty of magnesium in your diet or take some as a supplement. Good luck!
