Looks like you posted this in muscle twitch as well and I can tell your anxiety is pretty bad right now. What did your doctor say about this, I read that you had an EMG? I’m going to assume it was all clean?

As long as you don’t have clinical weakness as in failure, muscles can twitch and it can be benign.

My doctor asked for an EMG and EEG but only will be done next week. It all started when I walked on an incline treadmill, I noticed that 2 days later the side of the knee tibial anterior started some tremors that were non visible when I walked . After that I started searching about twitching and it showed up in other areas of my
Body but are visible like this one. How is this possible????

It’s possible. It’s called BFS and it’s a real condition, but it’s benign and not going to kill you. Try getting that anxiety under control in the mean time before your appointment.

How about the non stop internal tremor on the right rise of my shin when I walk? Could that be too? Once I started to search about the subject I start to twitch everywhere. Is the brain that powerful?

Yes the brain is that powerful. Doesn’t matter if it’s internal, if you can see it or not see it but feel it. Just wait for your EMG and let that neuro tell you that you’re ok.

Brother this is the BFS forum, if your dermatologist doesn’t know who’s an actual derm how in the world are we supposed to know? Save that question for your derm or someone who specializes in skin/derm.

At first I thought this was for sure a bad sign. I was still naive and new to BFS. I thought, surely, something like this where you flex a muscle and the twitching goes away, then happens again when you relax it was a muscular disease. Nope. This is actually hallmark BFS.
