Does anyone else experience small vibrations in their limbs? This is a newish thing for me but even as I am laying here typing on my computer my left leg as vibrations pulsing up and down it. It isn't painful but it is noticable while I am sitting, standing, laying down, etc. and doesn't feel right. So I thought I would ask - I forgot to mention it to my doctor yesterday.

Do you mean like a tingling? If so, I've been experiencing tingling and numbness in my left arm and leg. Only when sitting, thank goodness.

I also have many muscle spasms throughout my body. But, I think that's more due to my Fibro.

You might want to call your doctor and even speak with the nurse if need be. Just tell them that you forgot to mention it yesterday and are concerned about it. They may tell you it's due to your condition. Or, they may want to run additional testing, like an EMG or MRI.
