Twitching Eye - Please Help!

[Heidi1981]

Hi,

I'm aware this sound ridiculous, but I'm absolutely petrified.

You know when you feel a pulse somewhere else on your body? Well I have been getting this is my right eye now for more than 3 days.

Normally when I get this it lasts only minutes so as it's scaring me as to why its not going...

Any advice would be greatly received.

Thanks

I get this, I can see my eyelashes moving in a rythm. Like they're dancing! Quite amusing. I find its if I stay still or hold my breath...nothing to worry about.

This happens to me a lot. It has never got me anxious, but it frustrated the hell out of me. It's like my eyelid is fluttering uncontrollably for days. I think it can be stress related, but not always in my case. I think it can happen after spending too much time in front of a computer screen too.

Hi

I had this for over 3 weeks and I put it down to stress (hard to do though) and it went away. My sister gets it if she drinks too much caffeine?!

Hope you feel reassured.

I get this a lot when I'm tired; I know it's a stress reaction, but it's incredibly irritating.

This can be from a Bvitamin deficiency, I think it is B6.

I get this too, in muscles, eyelids, eyebrows, etc. So do my friends. A lot of people do, it just effects us more, because we are sensitive to anything that happens with our body. It is a very common effect, and when you find something else to occupy your mind, you will notice that it isn't there.
