I know some symptoms are more common, and some only a few get. I don't have restless leg syndrome, it's in my upper body. It was just at night time, But it turning out to be all the time. Is this a common problem?

I am really glad to see others have this problem. I have developed such serious tremors and muscle twitching. It is difficult to walk and has also created difficulty with speech. I haven't been able to write or type.

I have terrible tremors, and vision problems. Then I started falling, so now I have to use a cane. I have jumpy muscles all the time, all over the place.

David, Tylenol pm can cause your body to feel restless. Try taking just one 25 mg at night. Sometimes too much of a good thing can give you a rebound effect.

I get hand tremors sometimes, esp when I'm pushing myself to function when really I want to Keal over. Also get muscle spasms but more at night and sometimes when I've delayed a dose of the gabepentin.

Tremors is one thing I have learned alot about over my 30 years. It has made me drop things, not be able to speak, fall down and too many other things to name. This is my take on it. The nerves get so over reactive until they can not stop from twitching. As I talked to my Dr. he says everyone has these same things. But take a fibro patient and that twitch that everyone else takes for a tick is magnified 100 times more. So as a fibro sufferer we feel a lot more than others although I have always though my pain level was very high. Hope this helps all of you understand a little more. Blessings.
