I spoke with my NeuroPsych about it today and he mentioned that the sympathetic nervous system is over responding in patients with TbI or PCS. When your drifting to sleep you may begin to think about the following day and then your body opens up a gate to allow certain hormones and chemicals through in response to your gearing up for another day or gearing up for bed and sadly can't manage the amount it's giving you so it pours out too much causing the body to respond in this way.
That is so far the only answer I have received from an MD that addresses the issue. I understand it's nothing to be afraid of and hopefully in time as your body relearns what's right and wrong to do in certain situations, it will dish out the correct amount of hormones and chemicals and fire correctly not creating the body to jerk or sweat etc.
It is weird though I have to say!!
