For the past couple of months, I have been randomly woken up with what feels like an earthquake or my cat scratching itself on the bed. However, when I sit up to look, the cat is sound asleep and then the vibrations stop. I feel it in my whole body, but sometimes just my legs. It doesn't happen every night, but it is the SCARIEST feeling... Am I have mini seizures during my sleep?? Is it anxiety? Neuro issue??

I am actually seeing a Neuro this week for an EMG, so I am going to mention it. But has anyone else experienced this? It's freaking me out.

What are you getting the EMG for?

I get this too but I’m also thinking I have a neurological disease. But I looked it up and many, many anxiety sufferers experience this. It’s probably tension in your sleep. Like yesterday I fell asleep and had a whole body jerked like I was being electroshocked.

It's a twitch, don't sweat it. Bodies do stuff, and this is a good thing because it proves you're not dead ;)

I am having an EMG for 10 months of body wide twitching... Mostly facial, but other areas too. This sleep issue just started last month. It doesn't feel like a twitch, more like my body is vibrating or shaking. Feels like a seizure!

Yes, I will. I have slowly tried to ease myself away from my ALS fears considering it's been 10 months of twitching. I just hope there isn't something else wrong...Guess we'll know more Thursday.

Do you also experience vibration when awake?

Not really, just when asleep. And they go away as soon as I fully wake up and move. It’s very strange.
