Eye twitch not on AN side
« on: August 29, 2016, 01:11:15 pm »
Today I am experiencing twitching under my left eye.  My AN is on the right side.  Has this happened to anyone else?
AN right side found August 2016- grape size
Retrosigmoid microsurgery October 2016
Before surgery- minor hearing loss, major balance and dizziness issues.
After surgery- severe hearing loss (it fluctuates), no dizziness, minor balance issues

I get eye twitches, but they aren't related to an AN.  They are related to stress and being over-tired.  Eye twitching typically isn't a symptom of an AN.

Retrosig 5/31/07 Drs. Battista & Kazan (Hinsdale, Illinois)
Left AN 3.0 cm (1.5 cm @ diagnosis 6 wks prior) SSD. BAHA implant 3/4/08 (Dr. Battista) Divino 6/4/08  BP100 4/2010 BAHA 5 8/2015

I don't actually "make" trouble..just kind of attract it, fine tune it, and apply it in new and exciting ways

You may want to Google:  "blepharospasms".

I was diagnosed with this condition by an opthamologist a couple months after GK. It is transient and hopefully will dissipate in the next 2 years.
5/19/2015 - 40% sudden hearing loss + tinnitus right ear

6/26/2015 - AN diagnosed by MRI - 14mm x 7mm + 3mm extension

8/26/2015 - WIDEX "ZEN" hearing aid for my catastrophic tinnitus

12/15/2015: 18mm x 9mm + 9mm extension (5mm AGGRESSIVE GROWTH in 5 months)
