Sporadic Fatal Insomnia?? only 24

Hopefully a doctor can answer my question,
Recently i have not been able to sleep, it started out where I could not sleep more than 3 hours a night and got worse. I started to take ambein which helped me initially to sleep but i still wake up early around 7am and toss and turn the rest of the morning. I am also have body twitches all day long, anxiety, and twitching at night. The constant twitching and only sleeping a little(only due to ambein) scares me. If i didn't have ambein i would not sleep a wink every night. Do you think i could actually have early symptoms of SFI? Also I have had a little history of sleep problems but nothing like this, and never these body twitches all day!
