Hi, I know that in the grand scheme of symptoms this doesn’t seem like a biggy but I’ve had a tic/spasm in my right eyelid almost constantly for two weeks. It’s not huge and most of the time you can hardly see it but I can feel and see it all the time and it’s getting to be quite wearing! Just wondered if anyone had any tips that might help stop it? I take Baclofen at night to stop leg spasms and that seems to help the eyelid but if I take it during the day I can’t function. Any ideas warmly welcomed!
You might think you have every thing under control but your eyelid knows better! I had it a while back and it was stress/anxiety see your doctor or talk to your eyelid and say you hear it see it! Not being flippant I needed a course of antidepressants speaking about it helps especially to your doctor or someone who understands.
Not being stressed or anxious would be a damned miracle in normal times add MS into the pot. It’s not scary it’s just your body saying life sucks.
Thanks so much for this, on top of everything else that’s going on my eldest is off to Uni for the first time next week. I thought I’d been handling it OK but maybe my eyelid does indeed know better! I used to use the Headspace app quite a lot but have let it slide whilst everyone’s been at home, time to revisit I think.
Thanks again, I really appreciate you replying and hope you’re OK.
I was once offered botox for an eye twitch. I turned it down. I might have ended up with a very lop sided face…they said it is a common symptom with MS.
