A member asked:
When i wake up especially from a nap i get this strange internal shaking sensation in my upper body. sometime right before falling asleep. normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Shaking sensation: Sounds like this has been going on for awhile and not a new problem. Sounds like a muscle spasm and if that is all that is happening should not be a significant concern - if other symptoms are occurring then it might be worthwhile to consult a neurologist.
