shocks to head and chest when i move my eyes

[mrmorgan]

when i move my eyes real fast i get this shocking/intense pain in my head and sometimes to my upper chest, it will only happen when i make sudden eye movement, the pain is intense and only lasts for a sec but it will happen all day, or like before i try to go to sleep the movement of my eyes will make my whole body flinch.kinda like i was being shocked. i didnt know what was causing it at first but ive realized its from the movement of my eyes. did i damage the nerves in my eyes or something. if somebody can shed some light on this for me it would be appreciated...thanks

I'm sorry about your problem, you certainly have something troublesome going on and I honestly have never seen a patient in all my years with exactly such symptoms. I would start by seeing a board-certified ophthalmologist for a complete eye exam to look for any obvious problem. A referral to a neuro-ophthalmologist may be in order then.  I wish I could add more but your situation seems to be a little unique. Good luck.
