Periodic Limb Movement Disorder. Periodic limb movement disorder involves a rhythmic jerking of the legs and sometimes arms, which may result in poor quality sleep and daytime fatigue. Unlike restless leg syndrome, these movements are involuntary and usually take place when a person is asleep.
Symptoms, diagnosis and treatment. The most common symptom or sign of a muscle disorder is weakness, although muscle disorders can cause a number of symptoms, according to Schabbing. In addition to weakness, symptoms include abnormal fatigue with activity, as well as muscle spasms, cramping or twitching.chabbing said. There are many types of peripheral neuropathies that can be secondary to other medical conditions, such as diabetes, or due to a variety of other causes, including toxins, inflammation and hereditary causes, he said. Motor neuron disorders affect the nerve cells that supply muscles, Schabbing said.
