What Causes Involuntary Twitching Of Muscles All Over The Body?

My husband s muscles all over his body have been twitching non stop for over 3 weeks now. Have any idea what could be causing it? I get the same type of twitching on occasion in one little area, but then it stops. He is also experiencing muscle/weakness deteriation, grip strength weakening.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. In order to assess your husband's problem thoroughly, getting a chemistry panel would be utmost important. Muscle weakness and grip strength weakening over times sounds concerning especially if the symptoms have worsened over last three days.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
