LOLOL...I'm with Epona. Good post Willow.

I get the same thing when I'm tired Neb. I get it mainly in my forearms and cheeks, and sometimes in my right foot. I was told by a doctor that if you have had an injury or surgery, and the nerves were damaged, sometimes, when you haven't gotten enough sleep for your body to flush out all of the toxins fo the day before(i.e. lactic acid, mostly) the nerves get twitchy so that they can flush the toxins out of your system. And, since I've had surgery or injuries on all of those places...

Anyway, that same doctor said it seems to be worse for teens, since A) most of them dont get enough good sleep and B) becaues their bodies are incredibly active(on a cellular level).

You might just want to take a nap. Or maybe do some exercise. Swimming or running are probably the best. Oh, and drink plenty of water. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Sheesh..I'm starting to sound like a Mom. Sorry Neb's.
