Treatment History
Symptoms Experienced:
Sympotoms began in October/2004. Started with eye twitching and spasms on left side of mouth. Did not think much of this at first. Thought it would eventually go away on its own. Jan/2005 saw family dr. She sent me to have messages. Did not work. I have constant muscle spasms and twitching in the lower and upper lid of my left eye. Sometimes I cannot open eye as wide as right side. Mouth has spasms and feels like it is pulling to one side, making it difficult to speak. I also have fluttering in my left ear as well. Stress & fatigue are triggers, which then brings on migraine headaches.
