twitching muscles??
twitching muscles??
Please help! I am trembly and my muscles are kind of spasming, it's not painful or anything but with my hypochondria I'm fearing the worst and have worked myself up to thinking I have MS. Also when I walk I feel spacey and a bit unbalanced. Also aching joints.
Anyone else have these symptoms when coming out of a binge?? I'm losing it here

Lol, I have had all sorts of strange things happen to me, alcohol affects every organ in your body. But a binge defiantly won't give you MS. Chill out, listen to some guided mediation drink some calomile tea lay off the caffeine have an early night....
A lot of us suffer from things like Restless Leg Syndrome in withdrawal - but I'm not a Dr so I can't guarantee you this is what this is.
If you're concerned it's best to see your Dr.

I don't know I went through so much physical discomfort when I quit. A month long headache. What ever you do don't drink. You already know that don't you? Like everyone else said see a DR if you feel the need.

But it's different for everyone and depends a lot on your drinking patterns among other factors.
Unfortunately, I know the quiting unpleasantries all too well... I guess you can say that I'm a bit of an expert at quitting since I've done it about a thousand times... Sorry, bad joke....
Hang in there, friend. I'm in the same boat right now. But we can do this!!! Quit for good, I mean.
I haven't been on this site very long, but have already found some very good advice and support. It helps!
Thanks everyone. A friend tried to calm me down, but my imagination just gets carried away. Logically I know it more than likely is withdrawals but then a voice says 'well alcoholics can get MS too'.
I think the mental torture and increased anxiety is one of the worst aspects of this madness. Throw in a bit of psychosomatic aches and pains to boot and I'm jumping out of my skin altogether.
I guess if I still have these symptoms in a week then a trip to a dr wouldn't be excessive. Thanks guys.

Seeing a doctor is a good idea, but if the twitching is taking place in your eyes and sticks around please don't hesitate to get medical help, and clue them in honestly on the drinking specifics.
Getting very drunk often can make serious problems possible. The MS you fear would be a better condition than some of them.

Ive gotten the leg and shoulder nerve pain,one morning i woke up and my ear was plugged (not by wax ) and it still hasnt completely healed, plus i go up my stairs like a 90 yr old man with a bad hip (when drinking) ..
I call mine "the twitchy awfuls". Took about 3 weeks for them to disappear. I still have some residual trembling in one hand. But hey, I am 70 y/o, probably age related. I have my annual physical next month and will find out then.
But, do call the doctor and find out for sure. We are not doctors or medical professionals here able to diagnose sight unseen.
