Hi I'm new on here I have myoclonus jerks, I've had them my whole life recently have become worse. I've been seeing a nerolgist. I had an eeg and when the strobe lights started to go faster my head started tingling my lip and eye started twitching and then I went into really heavy myoclonus jerking I felt as if I went out of it for a minute and the tech. Shut off the lights I saw my leg twitching and she asked me if I was ok. She told me she couldn't tell me anything... I've been waiting for the doc to call me.. any thoughts?
