How to tell why i always twitch randomly when i sleep?

?sleep disorder: You may have Periodic Limb Movements in Sleep. This could be rather benign, but may be an early sign of sleep disruption. Unlikely you are having nocturnal seizures, but not a bad idea to discuss with your primary care physician.
