I don't think this is Tourette's Syndrome.
Look at this information about Myoclonus and see if it sounds like you.
Myoclonus Fact Sheet
Myoclonus describes a symptom and generally is not a diagnosis of a disease.
It refers to sudden, involuntary jerking of a muscle or group of muscles.
Myoclonic twitches or jerks usually are caused by sudden muscle contractions, continued....

If your body temperature seems to always be low, this may be due to subclinical thyroid problems. Look for information about Wilson's Temperature Syndrome.
For the muscle contractions, you can try supplementing with magnesium glycinate or taurinate, which are better absorbed in the intestines than mag oxide.
Source Naturals "Ultra Mag" is a good example.
Also, eating several ounces of almonds per day is helpful, as almonds are high in magnesium.
You'll have to continue to supplement magnesium for a long while.
A number of people at the support group LymeNet.org have myoclonus and low body temperature. These conditions can be triggered by tick borne infection, which depletes the level of magnesium within the muscle and nerve cells, and also seems to cause thyroid problems.

I will do that. Thank you.
Hello.
Convulsion are the manifestations of seizures. A seizure is a spell of abnormal brain functioning, and may or may not be accompanied by convulsions.
You need to get an Electro-encephalogram (EEG) done. The EEG is most likely to pick up any small seizure activity in the brain. Looks like a partial seizure.
Also check your blood minerals and calcium.
