Should I be worried about this?

A night ago I woke up to find my entire lower left arm contracting randomly. Like, every muscle. My fingers where curled, though I could extend them with more then normal effort. This random twitching went on for a good 10-15 mins.

While I have had random twitching spells, nothing like this has happened, and not for that length of time. What the heck is it? I almost would like to say seizure, but I thought those affect the entire body, not just a localized area. My next guess is that I was laying on it funny or something.

It could be a lot of things: random neural firing, low potassium/magnesium levels, dehydration, etc. How does your diet look? If you're not getting all the vitamins and minerals you need, this could happen.

How late do you stay up?

Usually not to late, I get about 8-9 hours of sleep every night.

As for the diet.. It depends. Inconsistent would best describe it. I try to generally take a multi-vitamin, but obviously I'm not perfect at it.

Probably nothing until this becomes regular or worse. One-off, I wouldn't personally worry.
