There called sleep tremors ... from what I understand.. it's where ur brain is falling asleep but half of u are still awake... its' a very weird feeling almost like ur fallin or something.... and ur body jerks to wake itself back up... what u need to do is see a dr and ask for what they call a sleep apnea test to comfirm what exacty is goin on... sorry about what ur goin through it must be rough....

I dream about having the jolt and wake up to the double vision and all other symptoms and then of course I don't sleep the rest of the night and sometimes I will have the whole thing come and go all night long.

So is it that you had a bad dream and you jolt from that or you dream about having the jolt and wake up to the symptoms?

So does this happen during the night while you are sleeping? And then after makes it difficult to get back to sleep?
