Misty, I hope you don't have to chose between dealing with the fasciculations and GD. 
Maybe there's an optimal dose of pm that prevents the reemergence of GD but not incur fasciculations for you?
I think it's hard to say whether there's another herb that can put down GD like pm can. I suspect because pm is the tried and true herb, it's easier to stick with pm than venture out and try other herbs.
Interesting enough, the label on Ainterol's pm bottles suggests taking calcium with pm. Perhaps this is one reason why?

Now this is on monkeys, but it shows longer term dosing of Pm in relation to PTH, and the results were lower blood calcium levels, which can cause neuromuscular irritability(twitches and cardiac issues). So, not sure how accurate it is on humans, but you could try taking some calcium supplements and see if your symptoms lessen.
