See a doctor NOW: Full body muscle spasms are unusual and could be due to very serious problems like low calcium or low potassium, or neurologic disease.It's important to find the cause so see a doctor as soon as possible!magnesium & muscle relaxing herbs like valerian & skullcap & drugs can help, but its essential to find the cause-if you have low potassium then you need potassium(& tests to see why it's low) etc.

See your doctor!: Generalized myalgia or spasm is likely a sign of a significant underlying problem, such as electrolyte imbalance, and that may be the result of a more important medical issue like kidney or endocrine dysfunction. This may rapidly deteriorate and possibly include cardiac arrhythmias, so see a physician today.
