What Causes The Diaphragm To Cramp?

For the last 6 months I have been having what appears to be a diaphram that cramps. The cramps happen at any time and often there is a series of cramps that might last about 5 minutes total.

I had an abdominal ultrasound done and nothing was found. I am seeing my doctor as well as looking through the internet. Thank you for any input.

CT scan of the neck and the chest to see the reason of phrenic nerve irritation.
You will definitely get the reason...
