Been having muscle spasms for a week now, and today it feels like all the muscles are completely locked up. i can barely move. what could this be?

Numerous issues: You could possess relatively acute muscle or nerve disorder (guillain-barre comes to mind), and your description even raises concern regarding "rhabdomyolysis", which could lead to a kidney issue. There is no real way i can assist you via this site, and would urge you seek face to face medical care asap, as you need this diagnosed and treated.
