Default Huge head jerks just before falling asleep

Well, last night I got back one of my more troublesome symptoms. Each time I started to fall asleep, I'd get a huge head jerk (sometimes it would take my head off my pillow). It's very disconcerting, and somehow different from a regular myoclonic jerk (where usually your leg thrusts out). I almost have a lightheaded feeling during/after. It kept me awake all night. Just wondering if others have had this.

It's like a mini spasm involving my entire head. It's not like the normal sleep start that involves a limb. Has anyone had any myoclonic jerks in their head before? After it happened twice tonight while I was trying to fall asleep, I just got up because I didn't want it to happen again.
