Night jerks

Anonymous

I have no idea why I am doing this.  At night my body jerks.  It happens when I lay on my side or back.  My legs don't jerk.  It seems to happen in my stomach or shoulders. It happens every night, and it is alot of jerks/spasms.  (maybe 10 in a minute.)  I went to my GP, and he didn't know why, even after a blood test.  I have an appt with a neurologist.  It has been happening for about 6 months.  Anyone else experience this?  What did you do to help?

I tend to do the same thing but mine can be my arms & legs.  Sometimes I wonder if it is medicene related.  I have no answers. NJ

Yes, but it's not just one part of my body, it's all over.  Leg, nose, arm, thigh - and not just at night but all the time.

*shrug* I don't know.  Chemo messes with your cells and nerves.

My partner does this all the time when he's going to fall asleep.
