You woke up knowing that you were jerking? Take it from someone who knows...you have no idea about anything until someone or the EMS people are waking you. I am no doc FOR SURE.... have you had your sugar checked? It could be so many things, I do not want to give advise, just give you food for thought. Were u sleeping and eating properly? Again, food for thought. Please seek medical advise and not those over the internet. This is your life we are speaking of. Good Luck and please Take Care

You need to see a doctor; not Yahoo Answers.

EDIT: I saw your edit. Believe me; see a doctor. I've had the same thing happen to me (though I did not find myself on the floor, but I did black out upon standing and got incredibly dizzy) and it alarmed my doctor quite a bit.

Either a seizure or a transient ischaemic (vascular) attack.

I have seizures. But i do not move around when i have mine. To me it sounds like you had a seizure. and a big one. I would go to the ER. right now and not take a chance. Because next time you could fall and hit your head. Hurry they will help you!!!!

Um....yeah it sounds like you did have a seizure. I supppose you would know for sure if you are extremely sore the day or 2 days after your seizure. Because during a seizure where you body jerks around the muscles are EXTREMLEY tense and a day or 2 after the seizure the person is very sore.
