I am experiancing body twitches. I will be fine then all of a sudden my body just jerks out of the blue. Last night I was almost asleep and I jerked so hard it woke me up. Can anyone tell me if they have had this problem?

Yes, I get them. Sometimes it can be a noise or just a jerk without any stimulus. It is annoying!!

Being fairly new to all of this and not having been D
X yet alot of things are very scary. Most of all is the facial numbing.

I hear you. Facial numbness follows me too. Often time I do not realize the extent of my numbness/paralysis until I look in the mirror.

I hope you are able to get your diagnosis. It does bring a sense of relief to know what you have to battle.

I too experience the 'twitch'. Seems to happen most often when I am in a very relaxed state. Usually just before falling asleep or lying down watching TV.
