I twitch and jerk all over my body, I had surgery about  four months ago, but this didn't start until they really upped my dosages of meds after my last series of t-c's.  And there is no charge in calling your neuro with questions, never hesitate if you have a question to call your neuro.

Yes I also had a very major surgery and I was told that this jerking was related to lack of oxygen during surgery if that is so that is considered malpractice
