Neuromyotonia is also known as Isaacs syndrome, continuous muscle fiber activity, myoseism with impaired muscular relaxation, etc. This disease is more common in adolescents and can be suffered by both men and women. Some patients have a family history of neuromyotonia. The disease starts slowly and worsens progressively. It is characterized by involuntary continuous tremors of the shoulder, thigh, and calf muscles that can be seen with the naked eye. In mild cases, the symptoms can be alleviated or disappear after sleep, but in severe cases, they can still occur during sleep.
