Sleep Tics

Ouch. I woke up this morning feeling rough, to be told by my girlfriend that around 4am I started having quite violent motor tics for a while. Apparently there were no vocals at all and it didn't go on for very long but all the same...that is so odd. I wonder if its a sign of how much worse things have been getting again or just a random occurrence. Has left me feeling like I might as well have not slept though! >_<
