Every night just before I fall asleep I suddenly have Jolts where I can actually get a foot off my bed and knock things off
the table. My body just Jolts and wakes me up. I get this even during day time naps. The only time it doesn't happen is
when I have a few beers before going to bed.
Sometimes it takes me 2 to 3 hours before I can finally get to sleep because the Jolts just keep comming. I have had this
problem for about 7,8 years. It used to scare me at first, but now it seems like a normal every night thing. Even today I had
one so bad that I was laying on my belly and it/Jolt flipped me onto my back.
Can you please tell me what this is and what to do about it so I don't have to drink beer before bed every night in order to
sleep well that night.
Thanks!
Brad
