@ksdm From your history, it sounds like you have eliminated spine related causes. Have you explored mineral supplements like magnesium? That does help muscles relax. Here is Mayo's information that also lists things like thyroid problems that can cause muscle spasms or dehydration that can contribute.

It sounds like a frustrating issue and it must keep you awake at night.

Thanks for the information. Ironically, the nighttime is my only relief! I don't think the spasms are caused by any disease because they've been going on for 20 years, 2-3 times a year!
