I have myoclonic jerks in my legs (severity varies) several times a day. I'm on Klonopin right now but I still twitch. It wouldn't be so bad if the twitches in my legs didn't hurt. It feels like I'm being stabbed with a pin or needle and then my leg involuntarily jerks. I go in for a lumbar spine mri today. I was just wondering what you all think? What could cause this? Because I kind of came out of nowhere a year ago and has been becoming progressively worse over the last few months.

Thanks,
Natalie
