Insomnia

Insomnia.  Boy do I have that.  Not sure if it's related to MS or not.  My husband says it is from "poor sleep hygiene".  Meaning that I don't turn things off that stimulate my brain, such as this little netbook of mine. I attribute it to odd sensations that I get in my legs, sometimes in my arms too.   It's hard to describe the sensation, other than tingling, creepy crawly feeling.  Makes me want to keep my legs moving around.
The night before last, well closer to morning, I had these sensations in both my arms and legs.  My husband woke up with me, as he couldn't sleep for other reasons.  A few minutes after I was up, I think I may have had some sort of seizure.  My body went rigid, for a few minutes, but the details are really fuzzy.  My hubby witnessed it,  it happened more than once, then I fell asleep for a long time waking up like 4 hours later.  The rest of the day I felt kind of "off" and drowsy. It was very strange, a little scary.  I have no idea if this is MS related or what.  Either way it was pretty scary.  I have not gone to the doctor with this, since I am not sure.  Waiting too see if it happens again.
Anyway I have been up since 3 a.m, can't sleep.  Odd sensations again.  Hoping it will pass.  Church today and I don' want to miss it.  I have had to miss the last couple of weeks. I don't want to miss anymore.  Church feels like my 2nd home, the  people there are great.  Makes me feel like I am home with people who love me.
I surely hope that I have not made to many spelling errors.  Having some brain fog at the moment.
