Hey all,

I've had a fever the last few days, thought I might have flu on the 1st day, temp 103, shivers, hot and cold flushes etc. But I seem to have calmed down alot now, just feel a bit rough, which is alot better than flu!

Anyway, while my temperature was so high, apart from feeling awful I was twitching alot. Is that normal? Even my eye movements were affected. I'm not sure how to explain this, but I also felt like I had strange electric shivers from my neck whenever I moved (separate from the twitching).

I'm just very unsure about the twitching, I've been doing it alot more lately, I twitched my way through my MRI the other day (although I was a bit scared) and through another appointment where I was a bit nervous. But I don't normally twitch.

OK, now I think about it, could it be something to do with the tegretol? Oh I'm all confused now!!!

Munchy xx
