Muscle twitching

[Dogmom55]

Hey all!! I have an odd question. For anyone that experiences muscle twitching especially in the face do you seem to have the same muscles flair up on and off... I had a cheek twitch under my left eye about two months ago that twitched for almost a month then went away and now a month later it is back.... just very frustrated... I m sure the holidays are making it appear but also with my Health anxiety I am never for sure when it is a real medical concern or not... thanks for any input!!!

I have that happen to me too. on occasion. It happens more when I'm feeling stressed. Hang in there, you'll be ok. Hugs.

Yes I have had twitching on left top lip. It's been about 2 months now. It does seem to be getting easier but I am so scared it could mean something else. Docs don't seem worried though never had this sensation before though

I totally understand! My same cheek has been twitching on and off and I’ve been to two doctors, an eye dr, and my therapist and they all think it’s anxiety related but I can’t help but worry it’s more sometimes! Hope you find relief!

It's so comforting to know others have these strange feelings. I also had pins and needles but this seems to be going. And some vibration feeling in lower abdomen. Had bloods all clear and the basic Neuro test for senses which were all ok. I could have emg but doc seems reluctant. Have you had emg?thanks for replying

I haven't had an emg. I also get pins and needles on and off, sometimes my lip goes numb, I also get an odd internal shaking feeling. They have done some labs and the neurologist checks. My doctor told me that she would order some MRIs if I really wanted to feel better but that she was almost positive it was not neurological. So I opted not to so far because the price was going to be crazy!

Also I did start acpuncture about a month ago and it seems to be helping with all of my physical symptoms!

[VwPoppie in reply to Dogmom55]

Wow. Yes I've had internal shaking. I had that today and came home early from work. Maybe I should look into acupuncture? I hate feeling shaky. Has the acupuntre really helped?

[Dogmom55 in reply to VwPoppie]

Yes! I did not have a good first experience but now it gets better each time. For someone like me who feels every little thing in her body it really freaked me out the first time. It does make your body do weird things such a tingle and twitch while your getting it but then it relaxes me. If you want to talk more pm and I am always here to chat more!!

Feel better! Left cheek and eye lid twitching a lot off and on. I also get this internal vibrating buzzing feeling sometimes I can literally feel it start and stop and start again. Docs all seem to give me the health check so it must be anxiety and stress symptoms.

Hope you all feel better! Glad we can reassure each other based on experiencing similar feeling.

Mine is my left too! I told my therapist it doesn't hurt it just drives me up a wall!!! It does help to know that others have the same things also. Even though I also hate that others go through this....
