My wife Susan has started to have what I term as jerks. Particularly worse in the morning, but they are there all the time. I give her a glass of juice or cup of tea/coffee, she takes it or picks it up from the table and an involuntary re-action throws it everywhere. When I put her bra on in the morning she holds her arms out but jerks when she aims to put her arms thro the straps. I get her to close her eyes and hold her arms out, then i get the bra straps on. This first came to light in November last year. She got out of bed and went to come down and missed her footing on the top stair, and came head first on her back all the way down. We ended up in A&E. She now waits for me to go up for her. (Something there makes her remember to call me.) Her leg / foot jerks. In January I saw her down the stairs and as she was walking into the kitchen my mother saw her just complete crash backwards. No tripping. Just back onto her head. She got up quick & said that she was ok. Washing her hands at the basin, she "jerked" and wacked her hand and bruised it. The specialist has reqested an EEG (electronic) brain scan.
