    Hiya Sarah-Jane,

    Mu bum, legs and thighs used to do this all the time. I think is unused adrenalin, floating around in our blood needing to be used up.
    It comes out as twitching.

    This is how I explained it to myself anyway. Like your reflexes.

    Hi Sarah-Jane

    I had this a couple of years ago before I knew I was even suffering from stress and anxiety. I looked up twitches on google (cardinal sin) and convinced myself of all sorts. Obviously it turned out just to be a stress related symptom and as soon as I accepted this they stopped really quickly. I agree with jude I am sure it is the body getting rid of the excess adrelin that we produce.

    I mostly got them at night, in by calfs, thighs and bum muscles and ocassionally shoulds and arms. It does feel and look weird though - doesn't it!!!!

    Well done for relaxing enough to enjoy your break.

    Take care...Angie

    Yes it is unused adrenalin. A bit of exercise does wonder for the big muscle ones and some relaxation to disperse the smaller ones.

    It is not uncommon to have almost rigor like shakes when really very anxious and afraid.

    I have these, I usually put them down to stress/anxiety and tiredness.
