I think it's a dopamine thing, but who knows. It started for me when trying new meds after going off Parnate for a while, but I was on a duo, so I can't say for sure if a med/or which med was responsible.
Yes, it's freaky. As I said, mine has mostly disappeared now that I'm back on Parnate (which affects dopamine). My neurologist was amazed and said if I ever get it again to take notes and let him know since he'd never run into something like this in all his years of practise. He'd put me on Keppra, but once I started Parnate, I weaned off Keppra (without telling him) and was better. I'd started back on Parnate the same week he gave me the Keppra, so I wanted to find out if I actually needed the Keppra. He was thrilled I didn't (not even upset I went off without telling him either....good neurologist!!)
I hate hearing others have this too, but in a way it is comforting to know I'm not a freak. LOL
