Eye Twitch
My left eye started twitching yesterday morning, and has continued almost unabated for about 30 hours. Of course I finally Googled “eye twitch”, and I was stunned to learn that eye twitches “usually stop within a week“. I was hoping for a matter of hours!
Update (April 8th): I originally posted this 9 days ago, and the twitch hasn’t gone away. I’m getting sort of used to it now though; like an old friend. I guess it’s time to ’see somebody’ about it. *sigh*
Update (April 23rd): Okay, now it’s really starting to get annoying. This eye twitch still hasn’t gone away! Before you ask, no, I haven’t gone to the doctor about it… I would feel so lame telling a doctor that my eye is twitching – that’s my problem. I’ll give it one more week.

I just googled eye twitch because I have a twitch under my left eye that started a week ago. I wear contacts and thought maybe I needed to update my prescription so I’m making and eye doctor appt. this week. It’s nice to know I’m not the only one with a noticeable eye twitch. It happens every five minutes or so. I hope it goes away soon. I’m nervous about it!

I’ve had a twitch above my right ear for an entire month now and 2 doctors have said it’s nothing!! Meanwhile it is every single day. And now I get some headache pain in that area!! Probably because the muscle is fatigued it something!! Geesh! I take magnesium. Calcium. Chamomille tea. Still no fix!!
If you have any solutions, please please get back yo me. Doctors aren’t exactly the most helpful.

I have had an upper left eyelid twitch for quite a while (a month or more). It is very annoying especially when I put on my eye makeup. I know it isn’t my makeup. It had never happen to me before. I have tried everthing or the counter and herbal. Many people tell me it might be stress or air I got in my eye. Let me know of something new-if you hear, read anything…unsolved mystery–44 years old

I had an eye twicth out of the blue for a few weeks.
I was starting to think that was me for life. It was annoying but counted my lucky stars that I didn’t have tinitus or non-stop hiccups.

My left eye lid has been twitching for-believeit or not- over 9 months. I have talked to three different doctors about it and they just kind of shrugged it off as if I had said nothing at all. Please if anyone knows how to fix this I would be so grateful! It is soooooo annoying!!!
