Myclonus Jerking....anyone?

[Wobbly]

Hi there, I'm getting more Myclonus Jerking in my arms and hands, is this common with MS?  Or is this something else?   People are noticing and ask me about it, I'm not sure what to tell them.  I'm going to see the Neuro this week so I will ask them as well... thanks

any ideas anyone?  thanks alot.

All - thank you for the replies, I guess it's all part of what my body is going through.  Thanks for the support, it does help alot to know I've got some friends here that I can chat with and go through this with.  

I love my family and friends, and I know they want to be here for me, but my friends here on this forum really understand what we are going through.. friends that are confirm Dx and those still in limbo.

thanks again and hope we all feel better soon, and have the strenghth need to deal with what is ahead for us.  

take care my friends

I have a horrible problem with this in my legs.  I've had bruises where they jerked and I hit my knee on the desk.  My husband says I beat the foot board all night long.  The worst part is the pain. My legs stay really tight all the time, like my skins gonna break if it gets any tighter.  With every jerk I wanna cry like a baby.  The Baclofen does help some but so far nothing has stopped it and it just keeps getting worse....

I'll be praying,

It happens to me in my legs.  If I'm sitting with my legs crossed, the top one will just shoot out uncontrolably.

Yes and it happens after I have held something in that hand and let go.  So irritating and uncomfortable.

does it just jerk out of the blue?  no reason for it?  it happens with my left arm and hand...my hand will just twist itself?  only for a second or two then stops...my I find this is happening more often latley and my husband is concerned..

take care

I have it in my right hand.  No ideas for you though.  I am right handed so it is frustrating to me.

It is not interfering with much but I find it unnerving.
