Your symptoms are anxiety disorder. Back pain, eye twitching, feel tired or hungry a lot. These all are symptoms of Anxiety disorder. It can come from stress, job problems or other drastic negative change in life. Consult a clinical psychologist for this or get an MRI to see if you have any lesions. If you have lesions then consult a neurologist if not then this would go by itself. Take rest and stop taking caffeine, smoking or any other food which has caffeine in it.
I have the exact same symptoms as you and am taking Fioricit as well and am wondering what the heck it could be
Hi,
Some of the causes for headaches can be migraine, tension headaches and cluster headaches (primary headaches which are not associated with any other diseases) or secondary headaches that are caused by some associated disease. Secondary headaches may be due to withdrawal from caffeine, high blood pressure, brain tumors, strokes, meningitis among other causes. Fioricet is usually prescribed as treatment for tension headache.
The exact diagnosis would depend on a detailed history with respect to the exact site, duration, time of the day, intensity, any associated symptoms like nausea, vomiting, visual loss, any neurological symptoms along with your past medical history.
Eye twitching can be due to the spasm of the eye muscles. It is a common problem affecting a lot of people. Some of the causes can be smoking, caffeine or alcohol use ,stress/fatigue/lack of sleep, irritation of the eye, eye disorders such as dry eye, conjunctivitis, blepharitis, photosensitivity, neurological disorders, medications i.e. anti epileptic, anti psychotic etc
Usually medical advise is taken if the twitching is persistent (>1 week), eye abnormalities such as redness, discharge etc, twitching in other parts of the face, closure of eyes during twitching, associated with other symptoms such as headache.
You should consult a neurologist about your condition who can order investigations such as CT/MRI scans which could help in the diagnosis.
Take care and do write in if you need more information.
