Never where you're saying you have, but I get twitches in the most random places. ie: top of my foot, eye, legs, etc

I ALWAYS get eye twitches. I asked my doctor about it, but he doesn't know the cause. He told me to put eye drops in my eyes, and they used to help, but, not anymore....

I get twitches all over my body. They use to be so bad that I couldnt bare it. When I started taking copaxone the twitches cut down a lot. I still get them though, some days worse than others. I get the eye lid twitch too.

Though the IVMP (Solumedrol) infusions she originally received after her DX fixed it, my wife suffered a nearly full paralysis in one side of her face -- including some twitchiness -- for a couple of weeks, so this is familiar to me.

That said, if this is a new set of symptoms and persists for more than about 48 hours, you need to consider a visit to the neurologist because it might be a flare up of MS activity that you will want to get under control quickly.

No use giving the MonSter time to play ravage the luvmekk.

I have eye twitches, they are common for me. Mostly real annoying. I only have muscle spasms in my neck. I am sure we can twitch anywhere though. I would see the doctor if it keeps reoccuring on a regular basis.

My husband was just diagnosed a week ago; he had eye twitching constantly for a week or two and then the twitching went down his cheek. His neurologist confirmed it's a symptom of MS.

I have had intermittent twitching in my left knee for the past 4 days, along with left sided weakness, numbness, and tingling. Wierd...just as I am sitting there...I can look down and you can actually see my the inside of my knee pulsating.

I had the twitching in the base of my wrist about 4 weeks ago-It lasted about 7 days. My neuro said the same-probably the MS.

I know we all have had the eye twitches in our life etc but when it lasts longer than a day and is in different areas of your body it is more likely a symptom.
Drove me nuts as I could see the nerve moving my skin.

I would definately advise your Dr though.

Let us know how you go
