Tingles and twitches

Thu, 10/19/2006 - 22:25
Hey all! Hope your all well xxx My neuro asked me last week if I get tingles or twitches. To which I replied no. Although, since he has mentioned it - I am now really aware of these things. My left palm will get really tingly, and get a quite a few muscle twitches through out the day. When I have a bad sezuire (partial complex) I will tremble uncontrably for 5 minutes or so after although I always thought this was because I was scared. Do you guys get this? Or do most people get this amount of tingles and twitches normally. Thanks!

I have those happens several times a day, I used to jump out of my skin when they happened, deep breathing seem to help.

Yes I have them in my right hand. I do deep breathing it stops them, and stops them from going into a complex partial seizure. take care Lisa http://health.groups.yahoo.com./group/epilepsyapproach/

I was getting alot of twitches, I think i counted 15 to 20 in one minute. My doctor recently increased my meds to 1400 and they have mostly stopped. I don't know if that had anything to do with it but its nice! nichole
