Default Twitches or Spasms

I had surgery a little over 5 weeks ago cuz my scaphoid bone died and my body was trying to reject it. They had to remove three wrist bones and some damaged nerve, and attached the ligaments and stuff to the radius and ulna (arm bones). I've been in a cast for about 2 1/2 weeks. Lately, I've been having either twitches or spasms in my wrist that feel like electric shocks or small explosions, and hurt like crazy...enough to wake me up and almost bring me to tears. I especially get them when I start to relax it seems. More recently, I've started getting twitches in the rest of my body...those don't really hurt, but they're annoying. It seems I'm always dozing off and that's when I get them most...they wake me up. I should probably add that I have fibromyalgia also. I'm taking vicodin for the surgery pain still.

Is this the RSD, fibro, or should I be concerned it's something else?

Oh...and according to the nurses in recovery, I have sleep apnea, too.
