Benign Fasciculation Syndrome

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thanks for posting the query

The symptoms described by you could be related to Benign Fasciculation Syndrome or Myasthenia Gravis or Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or muscular dystrophy.

I would suggest you to consult an apt neurologist for the confirmation of the diagnosis and further management. You may require electromyography for identifying the cause.

Hope I have answered your query; I'll be available for the follow up queries.
