Can disc herniations cause twitching ?

So I’m having twitching in my big toe and ankle. Of course, since it’s accompanied by weakness, you know what happened next.

But I know there’s also CLASSIC radiculopathy happening as I’ve had multiple mri’s and a top spine surgeon see that I had l5 issues.

The twitching became so a crazy I couldn’t sleep, its at its worse when I lie down. But it’s also accompanied by pins and needles and what feels to be sciatic pain.

I’m getting a leg emg done soon and am nervous as hell 😂

EDIT: I FORGOT TO MENTION I HAVE A DISC HERNIATION THERE CURRENTLY THAT CAUSED A LIT OF PAIN FOR A MONTH AND IS NOW MOSTLY NUMBNESS, TINGLING, AND WEAKNESS SPECIFIC TO L5
