   Twitching like this can be an indication of being low in absorption of  minerals...and stress.

Magnesium is one that has helped with mine....I do not get them as frequently as I did...and they do not last near as long when I  do.....


Certain meds..can also cause this when used for long periods of time...such as Dramamine, stimulants, Benadryl,caffeine,Sudafed,bronchodilators for asthma,diuretics, even antihistamines can do this too...

I get them in/by eyes but I get them other places on my body. Usually left side, that's the side affected nerve wise for me the most. Like 2 weeks ago I had twitching on upper back of left arm for a few days straiggt, you can actually see it. I haven't found anyway to stop them, but if anyone knows, please share. They are very bothersome.....Dana
