I also get body jolts, specifically in my torso, when I lie down. It’s been going on ever since I had covid in July 2022. When I try to go to bed at night, they immediately start in, even though I’m not even drifting off to sleep yet. They continue about once every minute until I fall asleep, but needless to say, it’s makes it extremely difficult to fall asleep! Sometimes it goes on for 15 minutes! None of my doctors care about it.

Isn't that amazing? Most of my jolts were in my legs, the ones that affected my torso seemed to be much stronger and cover the entire torso--it was scary. And I had the same reaction from doctors. You would think this would be of interest to them. It is very strange to have these jolts, and though I am getting so much better, I still get them at times. Not every night as I used to. I wonder why its only when we lie down?? Perhaps some day we will have answers, but for now I am grateful that these symptoms are subsiding.
