Body wide muscle twitches.

Hi all. Been twitching for two months now with the initial twitch’s being the worst and I believe caused by anxiety. Got blood work done and all labs are in normal range. Noticed them in my calves and moved up to arms, shoulders, quads, butt. They’ve calmed down quite a bit where I notice them maybe 20 times a day but they jump. Wonder if anyone else has dealt with this? There’s no other symptoms. Strength is great and I regularly run 8-10 miles a day six days a week and am even seeing improvements in my endurance over the past two months. Possible over exertion? PCP isnt concerned. Also any copes?

Random twitches but seem not persistent?

Hi all, 31M here. I’ve had “sporadic” twitches for the past almost two months now. I’ve always noticed some twitching in my calves since I began running a couple years ago but recently I noticed it got pretty gnarly in the last two months after an “anxiety” attack which I classify as my first attack. Ever since that I had body wide muscle twitches especially in my shoulders, bicep, abdominals, quads. It started intense and recently after seeing my primary it has gone down quite a bit to where I notice maybe 15-20 twitches a day maximum. No weakness and my VO2 max and overall fitness still steadily improves. Curious if an EMG would be worth it to settle anxiety? Also wonder if someone could elaborate on persistent twitching? I see some say all the time and some say every hour? That is for the clarification. Hope all are having a good day!
