      i went through that at the same time i was having all the muscle twitching. It all went away and i really don't know what was causing it. things i considered was maybe medication or vitamins i was taking. or anxiety

      angievon what other symptoms do you have. I twitch and jerk quite a lot and it frightens me, and the fact I have brisk reflexes aswell. I'm worried I have neurological illness xx

    Here too. Been to every specialist and had tons of tests, scans etc. I do have fybromyalgia (23 years now) and recently diagnosed with RA. But nothing explains the goofy reflexes. All so strange!

    My Neuro noticed mine. no explanation for them tho. I.m sure something to do with the increased anxiety.
