Strange body-lockup

This doesn't happen often (maybe once every 3-4 weeks) but it is strange when it does. Sometimes I get really excited when listening to music, y'know.. regular euphoric type stuff just sitting back and relaxing. Sometimes, very rarely, my hand might "lock-up" and I won't be able to move it for 10 seconds. Kind of scary, but like I said.. doesn't happen very often. I'm fairly young.. only 24. Decent health, thin, workout every week. I'm also on no prescription drugs. Anyone know what this is or if it is (or can be) serious?
Do you think it's normal?

Sounds like the onset of MS. Good Luck with that.

it may not be MS, don't necessarily take nodo the ranters advice. It may have have something to do with the bone/joint/ligament parts of your hand, I'd call up the doc. soon!

Are you a doctor Smithee? Then shut the fuck up. Why else would motor functions stop completely for that amount of time? Your advice is worthless.

I generally think that smithee is full of shit and nodo is right on in his opinions, but noth are full of shit a lot, so don't listen to either of these fucks, but if you listen to one, make it nodo.

Hey my hand does that to some times...it's like in the ligaments! He would be best to go to his Dr. I think Smithee has a valid point!

You might have a Neurological Disorder. You want to get that investigated. Especially if you're still young. It can be early signs of Muscular Dystrophy or MS. OR you can just be lacking certain vitamins.
