A member asked:

Does my 14 month old have a muscle disorder if he shivers sometimes?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not specificly: Some kids shiver as a normal event. There is also a transitional process some call shudder attacks that are brief shiver like events that last seconds while a kid is apparently awake & not bothered by the activity.Although any child demonstrating these events in childhood may have problems, there is no specific link.

I'm a 26 year old otherwise healthy female, I've been more or less anxious my whole life. I started getting muscle twitches literally all over my body, as well as occasional body jerks. Could that be MS or is it due to anxiety or another disorder?
