I was diagnosed with spinal myoclonus in September. I was in two car accidents a year ago, so I'm sure this is what caused the problem. I guess those of us who have this should feel special because from what I've heard it's a very rare movement disorder. I have made progress, but I live with involuntary movements. I move a lot when I feel sad for someone or when I laugh. I'm quite the entertainment for people. I am thankful to God that I am not paralyzed.

It was suggested to me by my primary care doctor to take bacopa and/or ashwagandha. Bacopa sort of helped at the beginning, but I haven't made any further progress. I am choosing to live my life without medication. Maybe those herbal remedies will help someone.
