On BP medicine. Getting fluttering sensation in lower calf. Should I be worried?
Answered by
Welcome to Health Care Magic
In all probability, there may not be anything to worry.
The veins won’t cause this fluttering sensation.
A clot has already been ruled out.
Artery could cause this sensation. . If so, it should be constant – unlikely to subside.
Hence, it is most likely to be muscle twitching (fasciculation).
This happens normally in many people and there is no cause for concern.
Since you are taking HCT, have your electrolytes (especially potassium) checked.
Also a look at calcium, phosphorous and magnesium may give a clue in some cases.
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck

Could the facial twitching be caused by the allergies or is it still likely BFS? Last year I had a clear c-spine MRI and an EMG.
