hi, my husband does have nerve damage from a back injury ...

Hi Susan,

Twitching would take place when the nerve is being compressed either by swelling of the nerve itself as would occur in an injury or compression on it by surrounding structures which could be muscle bone or any growth. Swelling can also occur in the surrounding structures in case of of injury.

The trembling of the limbs further suggests that the nerves suuplying these areas are under pressure which needs to be examined as well as the pressure should be relieved . Such a situation can also occur in imbalance of the certain minerals and neuropathies.

Right now your husband needs to medical care and I would suggest you to take him to ER as soon as possible.

Hi, we both eventually fell asleep and he seems to be fine. I don't think that I agree with your suggestion for him to go to the ER. What would the doctors have done for him? I was afraid it was related to his heart. You don't think it was do you?

Hi,

It is good to know that he is alright but I still believe he needs medical attention because twitching is more likely to arise out of a nerve compression or neuropathies and /or mineral imbalance as I had mentioned earlier. I hope he is not a diabetic or have any kidney problems.

No, I don't think any heart problem was the cause unless he has some obvious pathology in the heart and with a person who has a back injury there is always a fear of damage to the spinal cord and nerves which can result in paralysis. I would request you to consult a health personnel on phone atleast even if you don't intend to take him to the hospital. Hope this was useful.

I appreciate your feedback and I am going to accept the terms and pay you for your service. Guess what- my husband is a diabetic (type 1 for 5 years and I was concerned about his kidney functions because his back pain was predominently in the area of the kidneys. He went to his Dr. and his urine tested fine and had no fever. We proceeded to do blood studies and haven't heard back from the lab yet. I'm really scared!
