A member asked:
2.5 yo female told she had myoclonus and not to worry. jerks occasionally during the day while sitting still. should we ask to be seen my neurologist?

Grows out of it: thus is a benign condition that usually goes away by 3 years, if it persists past 3 y/o maybe get a consultation, but if not a problem now you shouldn't need medical help at this point. This is treatable...
