Muscle twitching

For a couple of weeks now I have been experiencing twitches in my stomach muscles and one of my buttocks. It's most noticeable when I'm sitting or lying down. It doesn't hurt, but they are annoying.
I am likely peri menopausal and I also take levothyroxine for hypothyroidism. I have recently started taking magnesium because I get restless legs.
I had flu at the beginning of the year, and it's taken me a while to get over it.
Does anyone else get twitching muscles? Is it worth going to the GP? My uncle died from ALS, and it was awful, so I am a little paranoid I think.

Yes I have restles legs and get lots of muscle twitches too. My toes move on their own too which feels weird. I have always just assumed that the twitches are linked to the restless legs and never worried about it. It can be worse if I'm particularly active that day.
