Non-stop twitching? Or come and go twitching? I've had twitches in my eyes - and all sorts of other places, too - going on three decades... Posts: 8355 | Registered: Apr 2003

Considering the last time you had eye problems... Physician? The original and only use for which Botox has won Food&DrugAdministration approval was for the treatment of eye twitches.

aspectre, thanks! It would not be a recurrence of that, though I might end up seeing my doc anyway. This is not a vision thing, it is a nervous twitch. But I just came off a nice vacation where I rested and was not stressed out. And I am not even really that stressed out, so it is frustrating. Egads! Botox!

Three months?! You poor thing! I can't stand an eye twitch for longer than a minute, I can't imagine going through that for three months. Go see a doctor, there may be a less expensive option than Botox out there.

Only reason I ever got the twitches was from a lack of good sleep. But if you insist you got plenty and are not stressed I am not sure what to say.

I'd see a doc. My father had an eye twitch for years, as a result of frequent exposure to dangerous chemicals (he was a dentist), and monthly botox injections kept the twitch under control. Might be a solution, but they're prescribed, so see the doc.

You know, I have not been playing squash, and it probably would take care of the twitch.
I think if I really analyzed my sleep patterns, it would be clear to me that I need more sleep.
I am more tense in general this year, though, and exercise helps with tension. It also keeps me clear, mentally, and I still get a bit fuzz-headed since my illness, so exercise remains a necessary therapy.
I must be in some sort of self destructive rut. Time to kick my own butt.

Well... I have my own eye twitch going on for the past month now. Left eye, lower lid muscles. I really hate this.
