The jerking of a limb is common with RSD. I used to get it in all 4 limbs at various times. For me, baclofen has pretty much stopped it. I used to jerk uncontrollably 2-3 times a day and now it's maybe once a month or less. Truly thankful it has worked so well. The shortest amount of time it happened was about half an hour and more normally would last a whole hour.

I've seen others post about the muscle contractures and have never experienced it myself.

Hugs,
