Hello...

I was wondering how muscle twitching usually presents in MS?

Is it usually all over the body in prettying every area? Or more specific and localized spots?

I've been having major muscle twitching for months now for no known reason. All normal tests. It can literally jump from my arm toy leg to my back to anywhere else in seconds. No weakness.

Is this the type of twitching seen with MS?

Muscle spasms or extreme tightness is more common that twitching. Twitching is more common in myasthenia gravis, Lyme, disease, certain deficiencies and many other diseases.

Twitching can occur in MS. It isn't considered a diagnosis symptom. It can occur in conjunction with brain or spinal cord damage.
