I get this. It's funny, sometimes I don't get it for many months, and then other times I get it every day for quite a while or numerous times a day.

Sometimes I wonder if it's because of a somehow overloaded nervous system. I have virtually no caffeine anymore and I used to be a cola addict, and now I don't get those twitches hardly ever. But back in the cola days, I'd get them a fair amount.

Another funny thing -- if I think about it and focus on the muscle, I can make the twitching extend itself almost indefinitely, or sometimes speed up. But I can't seem to make it slow down or stop very often or well. Sometimes deeply relaxing the part will help -- and quite often it won't. Yet as I said, I can amp it up at will, and even get a dormant area that was twitching a little while ago to burst into twitches again.

The thing has gotten me kind of nervous before, but I can't recall anyone saying it was anything serious, including my doctor.
