PLEASE HELP What's the next step?

Hello everyone! This is all new to me so please understand that I have alot of questions. I went to my neuro this week and he told me that my jerks that I've had all of my life are Myoclonic sz's. I use to jerk about once every 2 weeks but now I do it up to 16 to 20 times a day. What is causing this? Will I someday have the big GM? I had an EEG this week with no results yet. My sister is a nurse and she told me yesterday that I better be careful of what I tell my Dr., he could take away my (GA)DL. She said that if I'm just exploring the fact that I have these jerks they could really cause me trouble. If I could live with them (jerks) and they don't interfere with my everyday life just reduce the triggers and deal with them. I'm really scared, here is what I do: It affects my upper body. My head will usually move from side to side (ear to shoulder) and I'll have like a shiver go down my spine. My hands usually move too and I make a sound (now) like I'm being steped on. It's kind of like a dog shaking water off, I'll start at my head and everything will move head, soulders, arms, and stop at my waist. Does anyone else have this? I also have times when I want to stare while I'm driving, but I'm in full control. Should I still go to the Dr. and follow up or just forget the whole thing? I haven't read of anyone yet that has had my symptoms. I broke a glass the other day at work, and that is what made me go to the DR. PLEASE HELP ME!!!!
