A member asked:
What could cause worsening muscle twitches and fasciculations but with normal head mri, emg, nerve conduction study? my muscles are twitching and rippling, it feels like internal vibrating and nerve pain and gets worse after hot showers and stress?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Classically, generalized true fasciculations could be due to motor neuron diseases, benign fasciculations, and hyperthyroidism. If not yet done, get thyroid studies completed. If you possess a lack of confidence in currently involved physicians, get a second opinion from a neuromuscular specialist.
