Hi my husband is newly diagnosed type 1
Since starting his treatment he says he is experiencing twitches in parts of his body
He receives it as the same as when your eye twitches but could be anywhere , his arm , leg ect
Does anyone else experience this ?

Hi @bevellar, it's not something I can say I've experienced. Others may have though, so hopefully someone else will respond!

Highs and lows
I found I had bad twitches in my right leg when I was first diagnosed, you could see the muscle spasm

Hypos, rude people, ignorance and grey days.
I get them from time to time in various parts, but no more or less since I was diagnosed. I did get them in my neck at the dentist 2 weeks ago and was convinced my whole jaw was moving as a result, the more I thought about it the worse they got, fortunately no mishaps on my dentists part though.

If they are uncomfortable for your husband then he should consult his GP to get it checked out.

I've had that for years. It's nothing to do with my t2. It's annoying but I just ignore it.
