Spasms in head????

[popcornn]

I wrote yesterday about headahces. Today, I'm not experiancing any, BUT I'm having constant weird sensations in my head, my like muscles are spasing in my head. I dunno what they are. Has anyone else had these? Is it a responce to aprin or something? They dont hurt...they just feel weird and are annoying. Is this something serious?

I get these as well, big twitches and spasms on my temple area or top of head or sometimes even forehead. I have found that mine is caused from trigger points and muscle insufficiency in my neck due to a car accident and whiplash injury. I get trigger point injections in my neck and upper occipital area and this seems to alleviate those referral areas, chronic stress, anxiety, poor posture, poor sleep posture, these can all lead to problem in the neck and spine. It sounds more musculoskeletal in nature than anything else. Areas in the Trapezius directly refer to the temporalis and TMJ areas. Possibly consider a massage therapist, chiro, PT, or even a neurologist, hope  this helps,


Cheers

This sounds similar to what's been happening to me. Mine are reacting in 3 ways:
1 - Full spasms of random body parts with no build up - might be neck, arm, leg, etc (sort of like a leg jerk when you are falling asleep)
2 - A "build up" feeling sort of like I feel static building up in my head and nervous system (usually a couple of seconds) leading to a spasm of external muscles
3 - a "brain spasm" that feels like the muscle spasms but only seems to happen internally in my head/nervous system sometimes feels like a mild electric shock

While they feel like a jolt or a shock there is no pain, no "noises" or "lights" like Brain Explosion Syndrome people have.

Sometimes is makes my muscle in the area week which worries me when I am running or carrying things or driving.

This is the 3rd time I have had these. They start, become more frequent, hang around a few weeks and then disappear. The frequency and spacing of them is always random they could be hours apart or minutes. However it seems to increase in frequency/intensity later in the day.

I have been on other medications which seem to have no impact so far. Diet, exercise, sleep, or other changes seem to have no effect. I have had blood panels, MRIs, EEGs, so far nothing has been diagnosed. It is eerie, disturbing, and unpleasant.

I have been dealing with this problem for about 10 years
this is what helps me.
The number one thing that helps me is very freshly made kale juice
takeing a shower or going swimming for temporary relief.
Jogging/running helps me also but  i am carefull not to overdo it.
Reading to strengthen the mind.
I belive the cause for my head spasms is completely hormonal
in fact when i was feeling my worst the blood test had shown my estrogen was off the chart
and my testosterone very little.
a year later feeling much better i had a blood test again this time testosterone was very high estrogen very little.
Some things people will tell you to try
calcium potassium magnesium b vitamins fish oils with omegas
I try to avoid alcohol nicotene especialy caffine or any other stimulant
to much sugar  and fast food.
i use medical marijuana a tiny tiny amount and not every day
the point is to use just a little to reduce the annoying feeling in my head
so that at least for one moment out of the week my constant thought isnt
"omg my brain feels like is crawling"
to much marijuana is realy bad though and will put me in realy very  bad shape
sorry for my spelling and lack of organization
im so sorry for anyone experianceing this
dont give into despair and wait out the storm
and grace will come as always

      
p.s

do some heavy research on the cons and pros of prescription medication seriously please
do this prior to takeing them please please for the love of god

There are definitely muscles on and covering your entire head and scalp.(think about the muscles used to pull your eyebrows up, they don't end at your face) I have been researching this as I have too been experiencing the weird tingling numbness creepy crawly sensation and came across peripheral neuropathy which may explain some peoples symptoms, I suggest people google it and see if it fits their symptoms
