twitching eye????

My family...well my children...have been seeing my eye twitch and now that they pointed it out it is becoming annoying is this somehting that any of you have experienced?   i blame the brain hemroid.......that is the nickname my daughter gave this thing......It is a nice joke when I really start to feel down about it. Hope that doesn't offend anyone, sorry just incase.

Yeah  my hands and arms do that too.  my husband started sleeping with a pillow between us since I used to smack him in the face when they got really bad.


Yeah I loved the brain hemroid thing  my 11 year old is too funny some times : )  Now when ever i do something stupid. like trip over nothing...illness related or not... I say "I can't help it it's the brain hemroids fault"  lol

Yes I often get it!  I also get twitching else where!  Various muscles twitch and it get annoying!  
I once giggled and said "Oh great now my butt is twitching"  As my muscles were on the buttocks were twitching.  When it starts it lasts for days.  Eyes, arms, legs etc.

Okay, Brain Hemorrhoid....I'm so stealing that one!  I giggled out loud!  I nicknamed mine "Trudy" the protruder!  But yours is way better!

I too have problems with a twitching eye...mine happens under the eye. Either mine isn't severe enough for others to notice or it's because I usually rest my hand under/next to it to try & get it to stop. It's very annoying!!! Never thought that it was anything else but a 'pinched' nerve somewhere...where I don't know, but somewhere.

yeah, I had that too....when I was at work, I had people think I was winking at them.....

And I agree it can get annoying.....I also noticed it would get worse when I was overtired....

I don't remember having it since my surgery...I will have to make it a point to pay attention and see if it acts up again.
