Q: Sneezing And Eye Twitching

Everytime I sneeze, my left eye blinks for a while afterwards. Is this something that I should be alarmed about? Does it happen to anyone else?

My Healing Experience From The Like-Eye-blinking Sickness
My Healing Experience From The Like-Eye-blinking Sickness




From what you have mentioned about the serious conditions of your eye-blinking sickness, I would very much want to tell you that I have suffered from the similar symptoms (eye-blinking of countless times in a split second - I have suffered from it for about one year and then I finally get it totally cured through acupuncture therapy a few years back having sought other numerous but futile treatments from the other medical specialists / personnel) due to the neurological muscle spasms side effects of dopamine-disturbing medications of certain antipsychotics meant for the treatment of certain mental disorders.



Hence, I would like to share with you my healing experience from such an annoying sickness and I hope that you will somehow draw some useful reference from the information given.



In this regard, out of the articles giving details about my healing experience from such a chronic eye-blinking sickness, please look for the one entitled ' A New Version For The Self-administered Acupuncture Cure For Non-stop Persistent Eyelid-twitching' from the weblink :


http://ehealthforum.com/health/topic121270 _20.html

of this website.



Lastly, I hope that you will in turn get benefited from the information provided. Thank you.

Sneezing and Eye Twitch
I had this happen to me for the first time about 2 weeks ago. My right eyelid would start twitching and it was really annoying.

I had a glass of water straight away (whenever I get any sudden ailment or pain I always have a glass of water) and the twitch stopped immediately.

I know this isn't co-incidence because it's happened about 5 times now and each time a glass of water fixes the problem.

Try it and please report back if this works for you as well.

Well
It's actually called Blepharospasm which is a symptom of involuntary and uncontrollable
movements in the muscles around a person's eyes which in turn make them appear like
'blinking non-stop' to other people.



In certain cases, this may be caused by myasthenia (muscular weakness) in the eyes
organ as a result of stresses, overstraining of the eyes, lacks of sleeps, the serious lacks of certain nutrients / minerals to support the normal functionings / movements of your eyelid
muscles etc.



Next, in the case whereby no stress, any kinds of infections, overstraining of the eyes etc are involved whilst the eyelids and the entire organs just look superficially normal and ok, and at the same time, the eyelid-twitching / eye-blinking just get 'unexplainedly' from bad to worse
from time to time, such medical scenarios could actually be caused by other neuromuscular disorders which are much more complicated.



And in terms of such neuromuscular disorders, they may arise as a neurological / Tardive
Dyskinesia side effect of certain medications, especially the powerful mind-altering tranquilizers of antipsychotics / neuroleptics, particularly when such medications are over-relied on to the point of sheer abuse.



In such a connection, please consider the followings : -



"Chlorpromazine side effects

Get emergency medical help if you have any of these signs of an allergic reaction: hives; difficulty
breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat. Stop taking chlorpromazine and call your
doctor at once if you have a serious side effect such as:


twitching or uncontrollable movements of your eyes, lips, tongue, face, arms, or
legs;"

sneeze followed by eyelid spasm or twitch
I have the same thing...it's been happening for days now. Sometimes just the eyelid spasm alone but alot of times it's a sneeze followed by the eyelid twitch. I think some of these posts are not related to us...because my eyelid twitch is not noticeable to anyone; you can't see it unless you are studying my eye up close. I do not look like a chronic blinker. I think maybe it is a number of things, maybe dehydration does cause the eyelid spasm. It is very strange when the sneeze and eyelid...almost like they are doing their own little performance. it's crazy and annoying!! i really don't like it at all and hope it stops.
