What Causes Involuntary Muscle Movements In The Body?
I have been experiencing involuntary muscle movement. A doctor I met with the other day noticed I was fidgety. At a job interview yesterday, they didn t move me forward because they said I played with my necklace the whole time. Last week an old friend that I hadn t seen in a couple of years asked me what kind of drugs I was on. What could be going on?
