Eye Twitch Postop Partial Thyroidectomy

I had a partial thyroidectomy on April 01.  I have had a pretty much constant twitch in my eye since, rather, the on the lid.  It is driving me nuts. I figured I would wait and see if it is just nerves healing but it doesn't seem to be going anywhere.  Anyone else expereince this?

Me too! driving me potty! I'm hypo and being titrated onto therapeutic dosage and the eye twitching has been worse for past two weeks. Noone else I spoke too seemed to have this with hypo, so glad to know it can,

I had BAD eye twitching (and lip) for a short period of time when my thyroid hit rock bottom.  It stopped when the upp'ed my medication.

Let me know what you find out, it was very interesting to me to see this post.  I had no idea it was connected to my hypo but I bet it was!
