Exactly one year later and I have to BAMTHREDREZ this XD
There used to be a character on a multiplayer text-based roleplay game I play who was described as having a nystagmus. I find it hilarious that I couldn't remember the term at all before even though that character was around long before I started having the twitch. Nystagmus describes what I've been experiencing - the intermittent eye twitching, I mean.
So of course I had to go look up and read all about the pathophysiology on medscape.
Possible causes: MS (lesions to some parts around the motor control center for focusing the eyes), stroke, head trauma, inner ear problems, a bunch of other terrible awfuls
I was having it almost severely (compared to "normal") last week but it mostly cleared up last Friday.
I should probably go see a doctor. I need new contact lenses anyway, but since it is mostly gone now I do not know that there is anything they can do about it. It is like how in the past I have gone to the doctor because I woke up the night before in a feverish sweat and feeling like stuff was dripping down my trachea and into my lungs and barely being able to breathe even after sitting up, and then I get to the doctor and my airways are as clear as the glass in those Windex commercials.
