friskywife Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 I have had an eye twitch (right eye, lower lid) for over a month. I saw my eye dr. last week and he said it could be a number of things (stress, reading, looking at a computer screen, etc.) and to try hot compresses or sometimes cold compresses. He said that you can't always tell which works. I asked some people at work, one guy said that it was my body fighting bell's palsey. A girl said that it was lack of potassium-eat a banana! How 'bout ya'll? What have you heard would be the cause of an eye twitch? I gotta say that its annoying and it happens at anytime, whether I am just sitting here feeding my son, watching tv, cleaning house, whatever... Link to post Share on other sites

laRubiaBonita Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Seriousely though....it could, as your doctor said, be amy number and combination of things. But, you may try taking a Vitamin B complex suppliment, and make sure you are getting enough pottassium, and staying well hydrated. i get eye twitches too ....they are super annoying, i get them with PMS sometimes too.

Linlin Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 I get them from lack of sleep and stress combined together Link to post Share on other sites

Butterfly28 Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 Eye twitches...I used to get them too. The nerve gets all jumpy and you run out of patience wishing it would stop....THOSE KIND??! Ya...I get those...even in my knee, the curve of my feet. They say that its an 'ol Irish tale that you are gonna get $$$money%$$$...I have yet to see that Cold compress and proper sleep, learning to deal with stress are all ways you can alleviate those symptoms....oh yes, and a good multi-vitamin too.

About 6 months ago my eyes kept twitching evry time I would shut my eyes close real hard or when I used too much strenght doing something. I had just started the gym and it was funny because everytime the trainer put me to do something my eye would twitch and he would just look at me like I was a big WEIRD-O It was so annoying and it lasted for about 3 weeks!!!!! For thise 3 weeks it happened everyday Link to post Share on other sites
