I do see my neruologist monthly and mentioned it. I am on 1000 IV solumedrol monthly and now down to 11 mg oral prednisone plus diabetic insulin 4 x a day.

Thank you. Mine only happens when I yawn and it pulls all the muscles and then once it stops it does not happen again until I yawn again. Then I can go for a few weeks and then it starts up again for awhile. It hurts so bad until the muscle releases.

Has anyone had the problem with yawning and when you do yawn you get

these muscle spasms or cramps in your throat area? I eat things with

potassium, take magnesium and drink some water with the electrolytes in

it and it does not help. It is so painful. They have also run me

through the bloodwork and of course, I am normal for potassium,

magnesium, etc. Grrrr.

Thank you.

Yeah, she had that, but she had this other problem where the muscles in the back of her throat would spasm. I'll have to look it up.

Kat, the condition I was trying to remember is palatal myoclonus. Here is an excerpt from the Baylor College of Medicine website: Palatal myoclonus is a regular, rhythmic contraction of one or both sides of the rear of the roof of the mouth, called the soft palate. These contractions may be accompanied by myoclonus in other muscles, includ­ing those in the face, tongue, throat, and diaphragm. The contractions are very rapid, occurring as often as 150 times a minute, and may persist during sleep. The condition usually appears in adults and can last indefinitely. People with palatal myoclonus usually regard it as a minor problem, although some occasionally complain of a “clicking” sound in the ear, a noise made as the muscles in the soft palate contract. Here is the Baylor web address: http://www.bcm.edu/neurol/jankovic/educ_myoclonus.htm

You might research this & see if it sounds like your symptoms.
