It is not normal to experience leg and back pain, along with twitching or nerve pain, when you already diagnosed with epilepsy and anxiety. These symptoms may not directly related to your smoking habits, but they could also be symptoms of a more serious condition. Please consult a neurologist. They can diagnose and treat any underlying medical condition.
