These not only include the abovelisted known causes but conditions that can often manifest with twitching, such as: When accompanied by cramps or pain, the condition is often referred to as cramp-fasciculation syndrome (CSF)., Although some control of severe fasciculations can be achieved with beta-blockers and anti-seizure medications, no drug has ever been shown to consistently alleviate the symptom., One of the most effective means of controlling BFS is relaxation and the management of anxiety.

In neurologic terms, fasciculations are the spontaneous firing of a motor unit, a group of nerve and muscle cells that work together to contract a muscle.

The muscle may not respond well to exercise, and many people report feeling weakness as well. Symptoms of BFS also appear to be a cause of stress and anxiety for people who have the condition. BFS and ALS may display some similar symptoms, but they are different disorders. Benign fasciculation syndrome (BFS) Posted by captainanxiety8 @captainanxiety8, Mar 10, 2019 .
Background: Benign fasciculations are common in the general population, occurring in about 70% of healthy individuals. Because of the strong link that BFS has to stress and anxiety, it is important for people diagnosed with condition try to reduce their daily stress and anxiety. There is no treatment to reduce benign fasciculations. NLM The relentlessness of the condition can diminish a person's quality of life and sense of well-being, leading to severe anxiety and depression.. If anxiety is severe, it is best to seek help from a psychologist or psychiatrist who can provide stress-reduction training or prescribe anti-anxiety drugs if needed. Dr. Russell has received royalty payments from McGraw Hill. Fasciculations may appear randomly or may stay in one muscle for an extended period. 1 Comment. The twitching may be occasional to continuous.

[2], Benign fasciculation syndrome and the variant cramp fasciculation syndrome "can be regarded as part of a larger spectrum of disease that also incorporates acquired auto-immune neuromyotonia. Much of the diagnosis focuses on ruling out other more serious disorders, such as multiple sclerosis (MS) or ALS.
