for about 4 days now i have been experiencing an extremely annoying twitch in my right bicep. i know that stress can cause things like this, but i highly doubt that in my case. i think i have also heard that it can be due to a lack of potassium in you body, but i don't know if that is true or not. has anyone else experienced this or have any idea of what is causing it?

Yea this happens to my legs and calves alot....sometimes it cramps really bad. Stretching it, takeing muti's will help........if it keep happing however and doesn't get better, in a week or so, i'd go see a doc, you might have pulled or strained a nerve.
