Sommer J 0 Posted April 1, 2019 Hello Everyone! Im new to this forum,looking for some type of explanation. Ive been having a upper eyelid twitch in my right eye for close to 3 months everyday. It is intermediate and only lasts a couple seconds. What could it be? Does anyone twitch this long in the same spot ? Scared of a Nero problem. I’m trying not to stress but the more it happens the faster I think about it once again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jolisha 2 Posted March 23, 2020 Hi @Sommer J I know this is pretty late but I just joined Few days ago and seen your concern. I honestly don’t have the answer for the twitching but my left eyelid does the same it’s been twitching for a few weeks, I’ve notice it twitches when my anxiety start acting up. I hope you got the answers you were looking for! Good luck! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustLuca 5 Posted March 31, 2020 I also have the exact same problem and have had it for years. I was told it's from my medication. According to my doctor many older antipsychotics or antidepressants can cause this at higher doses. I've noticed the eyelid twitch a lot and also sometimes notice a twitching or pulsing area in my foot. Weird, I know. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jolisha 2 Posted March 31, 2020 @JustLuca hi 🙂 I don’t take any meds for anxiety only for my thyroid and blood pressure and I haven’t had any twitching before, it only started recently out of the blue and don’t know why. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi to you too 🙂 I would check with your doctor and see if your blood pressure meds can cause anything like this. Another theory is that it could be caused by stress. Sometimes people can experience really odd symptoms from simply being anxious or stressed out. When you get a chance, I would bring this up to your doctor and ask if it could be caused by your medication or if it's more likely to be stress or anxiety related. Fatigue/tiredness or too much caffeine can also be culprits. Sometimes I also get a twitch or shiver if I'm overtired or had too much coffee or soda. I'm sure other people have experienced this.

N.har 0 Posted April 29, 2020 my upper lip has been twitching continuously for 4 days. The only way to stop is by touching my lip. This has also happened before in the past. I also have a spasm in my lower right lip which comes about every 3 weeks, lasting anything from 10-30 minutes. This one seems to have a pattern to it and has been on going for over 3 years. I am just getting worried now, would like some re assurance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
