Guest guest Posted December 17, 1998 Report Share Posted December 17, 1998 Dr Levin, I am under the care of a neurologist for rls. My first attempt at medication (Sinemet) has been unsuccessful so far. I am returning for a follow-up visit on Monday and I need your help with describing a troublesome symptom. My presenting symptom which caused me to seek care back in July was twitching which began in my face and then spread to my arms and legs. I then developed " creepy crawlies " in my legs and strange vibratory sensations in my feet and left arm. My latest symptom occurs only when I move my lips to the right side of my face which causes involuntary movement to the right side of my face. It occurs less as I repeat the motion over. I am concerned I will not be able to reproduce the movement in the Doctor's office. Is this movement best considered a tremor? FYI, I have had a MRI and EMG both of which were normal. I thank you in advance for any advice you are able to give. Rose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
