    eye twitch

    I'm week two into my PCT. I doing 20mg nolvadex ed + 12.5mg aromasin ed. I've started getting an occasional eye twitch in my left eye lid. Has anyone experienced this? Any advice?

    Thanks!

      Go see an eye doctor , I had that in the past . I dont feel it has anything to do with your PCT or meds you are using as I have ran many PCT's and never had or heard of that symptom . Although you probably have a stigmatism in that eye , or atleast when I had that twitch in my eye and seen the eye doc thats what the verdict was ,One eye is working harder or straining to see versus the other eye . Id bet this is the case here as well .

        Happens to me frequently. Here is some info on the causes.

        Causes
        By Mayo Clinic staff
        Anyone can have an eye twitch from time to time without an identifiable cause, such as a disease or condition. Occasionally, a cause for eye twitching can be identified. In those cases, eyelid spasms may be associated with or prolonged by:

        Alcohol
        Caffeine
        Fatigue
        Irritation of the eye surface or inner eyelids
        Lack of sleep
        Physical exertion
        Smoking
        Stress

        Chronic, uncontrollable eyelid movement affecting both eyes is known as benign essential blepharospasm. Although its exact cause is unknown, the following conditions often precede or accompany benign essential blepharospasm:

        Blepharitis
        Dry eyes
        Light sensitivity
        Pink eye (conjunctivitis)

        Very rarely, eye twitch may be a sign of certain brain and nerve disorders. When it is, it's almost always accompanied by other signs and symptoms. Brain and nerve disorders that can cause eye twitch include:

        Bell's palsy
        Cervical dystonia (a separate type of dystonia sometimes accompanied by blepharospasm)
        Dystonia
        Parkinsonism: Causes and coping strategies
        Side effects of drugs, particularly medications used to treat epilepsy and psychosis
        Tourette syndrome

            It happens to me when I'm very stressed at work.

              Thanks all for the responses. I've made an appointment to see the Dr. I started a new job recently - perhaps I'm stressed from it and I didn't realize it. Thanks again!

                        I believe this should be reffered to as quivering ...lol

                            Be wary of the man who urges an action in which he himself incurs no risk.
