eye twitching/winking

Hello:
I have had my left eye be in and out of a twitch\partial closing activity for over one month now.  The shape of the eye looks more almond that the other, I have no pain however I feel this pulling sensation in the left eye. This comes and goes.  Any ideas?
The other issue that I am experiencing is in my right back, just beneath where the bra strap rests.
This is a shoc/vibrating feeling this too comes and goes but has been quite regulay as the eye has over the past month (like if you touch the toaster and you can feel the current).
I have had no medication change, do diet change or sleep change.
Any ideas on this?

My dad has twitching just like this.  He has a twitch that looks like a wink and it has caused him some problems at times!  Winking at times that may not be appropriate!

My sister also has some similar twitch problems.  My grandmother has had a lot of trouble with the same issue so I think it has to be hereditary.  None of them have ever been tested for MS as far as I know.  The doctor was thinking many a form of tourette's with my grandmother. She's had a lot of testing. She is close to 90 now.

It does sound neurological...  I've had eye twitches for a long time, and thought they were stress.  Turns out it was MS!  But it may just be stress in your case.
