What Causes Migraines And Electrical Jolt Like Feeling In The Body?

Hi, my wife has Parkinson. She has been having a reflex/jolt/a movement of her body that at times is tolerable but the intense ones that are sharp, she feels like she is going to be thrown out of bed because of the intensity. they have been happening since April this year. She has a pacemaker and the zap that it gives is not it. Her neurologist and her general practicener have her going for ekg and lab work. Then if they are ok she is being referred to a movement specialist. We just notified her doctors and were in the beginning stages. We were asked why did we wait. She also has migraines real bad and the intense jolts are just now getting her concerned. Have any ideas what the jolts/reflex s are? Thank you
