I'm 23 female. have fascicualtions (general) since january. little muscle pain. tought it's just a result of stress. could it be serious?

Fasciculations: Fasciculations are not uncommon and most often don't denote a serious problem. On the other hand fibrillations of muscles can indicate pathology of the nervous system. Check your serum calcium, magnesium and potassium levels to rule out other causes. A neurologist is best qualified to evaluate and advise you.
