As crazy as it seems most of the tightness has gone away since I’ve gone on a strict gluten free diet and my body started taking in all the nutrients and electrolytes I was missing. Still get some weird fasciculations, but hoping these go away with time. I’ve been going pretty hard ski touring and cycling and while I get a little tightness afterwards it doesn’t really bother me or cause me pain. Kefu, any updates on how you’re doing?
