Re: balance problems and fibro fog/ER visit

[Guest guest]

Hey Debra I remember those old beds. I guess that

tells on how old we are if we remember that patient

beds years ago were not electric.

So sorry to hear of your lumps and bumps and brusies

and every thing that goes bump.

I awoke this morning with the most horrible

involuntary muscular jerks and spasms. They were like

have a full seizure but i was awake and cognitive and

they lasted from this morning until just about 2 hours

ago when I was given Valium . has any one else had

this/these symptoms.

Diane,

I get those spasms not quite like you described. Mine start early afternoon

1 - 2 spams either in my hands or in my midriff. And they

can get worse if I am overtired and try to relax and sleep. About the time I

am ready to drift off then something will jerk and wake me up. They are more

annoying than anything and do not hurt me.
