Muscle twitching

[MissBee]

I'm just wondering if anyone had full body muscle twitches as a symptom? I have strong muscle twitches all over my body (thighs, buttock, arms, thumb, stomach) that come and go. I know racial twitching is common but is this a typical symptom?

I'm not diagnosed but my symptoms are pointing to AN but the muscle twitches are making me believe it may be something else. I'm trying to push for a second MRI but I want to be sure.

My symptoms have been going on for 2 years now. It started with dizzy spells that came and went randomly. Then, my tongue started getting tingly and numb out of nowhere. Then, my left ear became plugged and I could hear my heartbeat frequently. I also had a loud humming sound in the same ear that lasted about a minute. My ear is now constantly blocked, I get dizzy spells, my face feels as though it is tightening up on affected side, I get brain fog, a mild headache behind ear/base of left skull, balance issues, fatigue and feel very off and/or drunk. I also have said muscle spasms throughout my body.

I do have an impacted(not infected) wisdom tooth on the affected side and I'm wondering if that could be the cause of my symptoms?

I've had an MRI (without contrast) about 6 months from the start of symptoms that was clear, two different ear/balance testings and all blood work is normal.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Dizziness, ear fullness and facial twitches are part of the AN profile, but muscle twitches in other areas of the body are not. However, I do believe an impacted wisdom tooth could be an issue because a dentist told me that me that problems with a wisdom tooth could account for the pulsatory tinnitus I was having. As one ages, jaw issues and tmj can cause similar symptoms such as ear fullness as can sinus issues.   I think if you had an AN, unless it was very small, it would have shown up on the MRI, even without contrast. Have you seen a neurologist? He would likely order a battery of tests to eliminate other causes for the twitches and numbness.

I did visit a neurologist and after a quick simple check, he pretty much just said that he's stumped and if symptoms persist that I should come back.
