anything: Sorry your question is too general, the possibilities for the symptoms you are describing actually fill over a thousand medical textbooks. Again a great start is a good complete physical exam by a licensed general practitioning physician.

No: While it can cause very mild paresthesias, muscle twitching is not a common side effect. That being said, it is not well studied for specific side effect profiles and cannot account for adulterants.

Please see below: If they are painless, may be normal. But, spasms are usually painful. If you have these symptoms for long time then you want to see a neurologist to make sure there is nothing serious going on.
