twitches/cant imagine what this is, any help please
hi
i dont know if im in the right place, but if anyone here can relate, any advice really,
ok, prob is for nearly three weeks i have had this very strange sensation in my head, its like an eyelid twitch but its not my eyelid it feels like its in my brain, when it twitches my eyes move too, because whatever im looking at jumps with each one........i have no headache, just this horrid twitch, jerk, jolt dont know what to call it but no pain....this is scaring me bad......im not on any meds and eat healthy stuff....its soo distracting and i dont know of anyone who has this....
ok to add, this goes on and off all day and when i wake at night its there, now my tounge has started twitching badly but only when lying down in bed, just from waking up, it has a mind of its own and i can feel the muscles elsewhere in the left of my face twitching to but not as bad as my tounge............this seems to stop when i get up but the twitch in my head doesnt.... if anyone could reply id be gratefull , i hope i dont sound like a crazy person but this drives me crazy....
i went to my gp and his suggestion is migraine, i know people with migraine and none of them have this twitchy stuff.......i thought of something else i notice when im at the computer its worse, my eyes jumping/twitching......
thanks in advance for anyone who will reply

Hi alana,
Does that weird feeling in your head feel like a ripple or shiver? Where do you feel it in your head? Do you ever feel it behind your eyes when it feels like your eyes are doing something weird? Has anyone seen your eyes doing anything funny?

i feel it in my head, kinda mostly at the back of my eyes but can feel like base of neck and inside the top of my head, its hard to describe the nearest i can liken it to is a muscle or nerve jump/twitch that has a breif vibrate/shiver effect too, they are only seconds in duration, but come and go most of day, like ill have an episode of 20 (i'll call them blips) then it may stop for 15 mins and start again, with every (blip) my eyes bounce once, when i ask my dh to look he said he could see a slight move of my eyes.....the last 2 days have noticed a tenderness behind my left eye and a slight vague feeling of tingling on left cheek not major maybe cos im panicking? i notice that the computer screen can make it a bit crazy so i im limiting myself on here for now.......
thank u for replying lynxgal, appreciate it, i hope u r ok?
have you actually seen any sort of eye doc just to get his evaluation on the symptoms along with a good eye exam?they can look somewhat into the brain thru the eye and would see any oddities that could be present tho it is a rather small "window'it is a look.if this doesn't show anything i would really seek out a good neurologist at that point.getting his eval as well would help you track down the reasons.obtaining an MRI wouldn't hurt either,just to get that look inside the brain area.just make certain that the MRI is a contrasted one,this would just show up areas,like the arterial structures and others,that would not show as well without the contrast dye.this could just be an overactive muscle type issue or something else entirely.but this most definitely does not appear to me at all to be any real migrane type syndrome.i do wish you luck in tracking down the culprit here.please let us know just what you find out.marcia
