Eyelid twitch
Hello, I started having an eyelid twitch about 3 weeks ago. It comes and go and is worse after blinking or winking hard. I saw an eye doctor and she could not find a cause and said it is probably stress. I searched online and found a lot of benign causes as well as scary causes. I have never had a twitch this long and am wondering if I should be concerned or if in fact it is likely stress?
No problem. The symptoms of magnesium deficiency are numerous. Dr Hyman has an article entitled "Magnesium: The Most Powerful Relaxation Mineral Available" and I like this quote of his...
"Think of magnesium as the relaxation mineral. Anything that is tight, irritable, crampy, and stiff -- whether it is a body part or an even a mood -- is a sign of magnesium deficiency."

Thank you, I am going to definitely try taking magnesium and see if that helps. My shoulder and back muscles are extremely tight and painful as well so it might even help with that.
