Can weird twitching be due to bad lead?

I have an atrial lead that has the impedance going up. Won't know for a few months until my batterie dies if the lead is bad, or if it's just a loose connection. Sometimes, I get a radiating twitching sensation that goes down my left side, into my crotch area. Sometimes, I think my cell phone is in my left pocket, but it isn't there. It happens a lot while I'm driving as well. Can this be from a bad electrode? Where is it common for these sensations to radiate, or perhaps it's something else? Mucho Thanks! Jim Jim
