Twitching while sleeping

2017-03-22 05:26:57
Dear doctor. Had a strange sensation of twitching sometimes inside head, at times in parts of hands while about to sleep yesterday night. ( Also in light sleep). I was made to wake up fearing falling multiple times. Was not able to sleep again for few hours. Is this some kind of epilepsy. I am in bit of stress and anxiety lately. Also one the toe finger showed burning sensation couple of times yesterday. Please help.
