Twitiching Eyes



Recommended Posts

As anyone had problem twitching muscles? I am 9 weeks out and my eyes are twitching like mad! I saw my dr yesterday and had several Vitamin panels drawn so I am sure I will have an answer next week..but I am wondering if anyone else is experiencing this. Is this a common thing? Thanks in advance for answers!

That's stress related. I had an eye twitch for over 2 years. My eye doctor has anxiety and had an eye twitch too. Being overly tired or feeling stress can cause it.

Mine also happens when I'm stressed or tired (even if I don't realize it :) a few nights rest and relaxing and I get back to normal.

Well..I don't feel stressed but I have been going to bed late so maybe I am tired...

I never felt stressed either, anxiety manifests itself in weird ways. Having a surgery is stressful, you made a life altering decision in changing your life :)

Stress, being tired, or low potassium usually are what does it to me. Or if I am drinking for some reason.

No twitch, but I have noticed cramping in my fingers that wasn't there pre-op. Not sure what that's all about, but it doesn't happen often so I hope it goes away!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
