A member asked:
Can you tell me about suffering from involuntary jerking of limbs/seizure like symptoms from anxiety?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Got a video EEG?: Whats going on upstairs when the limbs jerk ? I'd have more to say if I could watch what goes on with the brain waves while looking at a simultaneous video of you. Otherwise I'd just be guessing.
