I have been having (what I think are) fasciculations in various parts of my body for 3-4 weeks. They occur ~5 times an hour. Is this something I should be concerned about?

Hello,

Thank you for asking your query at DoctorSpring.

I understand your concern. I would need some additional information from you so that I can provide my best learned opinion.

1. May I know what exactly you mean by facilitations? Do you see flickering movements of the muscles ? Or is it just a feeling ? If there is movements are others (family or friends) able to see it ?
2. At what all body parts you are having this fasciculations ?
3. Do you have this symptoms at night ?
4. Do you have any other symptoms (like weight loss , thinning of muscle, weakness )

You can reply as a followup.
Thank you
