Restless leg?: Random twitching is pretty common and not serious. If not painful and you still fall asleep pretty soon, it's nothing to worry about. However, if more severe and painful, with an urge to keep moving your leg(s) or arm(s), maybe restless legs syndrome. See http://www.webmd.com/brain/restless-legs-syndrome/restless-legs-syndrome-rls#1 Or discuss with your doctor.
