twitching anyone?

[kricklekrin]

Can anyone tell me if they experience head or face twitching with their Chiari?  I'm having a lot of twitching near my temples, very annoying.

Has neone ever experienced when indoors and looking out to a sunny day...gotten the flashing lights when u turn to look back in side?


Yeah Carolyn in a semi dark room...the static is there.....I hate going from a well lit room to a darken room or vice versa.....and balance is all off in a darker room....

Hmmm..one thing I noticed very early on that I was seeing static everywhere...light static in bright light...and then static (like when the TV is on a bad channel) in dim light which makes it very hard for me to see in the dark.

It does sound like you are starting to experience some visual disturbances..you might want to add that to your list!

Lisa..when I say blurry vision u can say it is similar to ur description of dirty glasses.....
Carolyn,...I have seen the waves too....
and I even had the window of rain....u know when u r in the car and it  is raining...the effect u get in ur peripheral vision?...well I got that and I was not in a car and it was not raining....I felt like I had some weird blinders on.....

Kind of like, if I were wearing glasses, they're dirty, or there's something on the lens.  Not constant, just random here & there.

What do you mean by hazy vision? When I first starting having vision disturbances, I would notice I would be looking through this haze sort of like heat waves or something. It would happen especially after a run (didn't know I had CM..so I was probably really upping the pressure in my head). Anyway, after that, I started to have the floaters, sparklies, double vision etc...

Do you have any other vision issues?

yup, I have the twitching, I also have a very mild "yes yes essential head tremor" and this causes vision problems. I am not aware of the tremor and it is not viable but was detected during testing for CM.

Do you have twitching in other areas?
