twitch in my left eye

[Drussana]

Hi!
I am vaping 10 days but the last 3-4 days I have a twitch in my left eye. I was searching about this and it was difficult to find any info. At last I found one old post with someone else with the same problem but I can't post there as a new member. I start new Thread because the old post has no recognizable title about the problem

It is annoying to feel your eye like this. I start vape with 11mg and now I vape 11,9 or 0 alternate
usually when it start I stop vaping or I vape 0mg but I am not sure why it happens

Welcome to ECF! Congrats on starting in the vaping world! Eye twitches are usually stress related. Also, if you stopped smoking, that will cause your body to do some strange things. When i quit smoking, my right foot would cramp up. After a few weeks, it went away. Your body goes through some wild changes while your body rids itself of all the toxins from smoking.

Hey congrats on the switch.
Very true that quitting smoking can cause funny/odd things. I would say if it doesn't go away and your uncomfortable with it, give your doc a call.

hi and thanks!
the last 10 days is only vaping.
I was vaping 10 more days before that and I stop smoking step-by-step day after day

i to have the left eye twich it is odd but it could be worse

do you have a history of migraines? I ask BC that is a problem I have when I get migraines. You don't have to have a headache to be having one and symptoms can make sudden changes from the norm. Might still ask you doctor to be safe though.

Youre not alone, my eye twitches every once in a while but Ive had it happen even before I quit smoking.

no migraines and no eye twitches when I was smoking

I am not sure if it is from nicotine ammount my body can have and a way to tell me that I must stop for awhile. I was heavy smoker 25gr golden virginia tobacco every 2 days but I start with 11mg/ml juice and it was strong for me. I read that people who smoke lights start vaping with 25mg and I don't understand how they can but this is another story

Theres no harm in seeing a doctor! Its Canada!!

IMO I would say it is not from vaping tho, try switching brands of ejuice to be safe, maybe theres something in the kinds you have that youre allergic too, maybe that nasty crap they put in chinese liquids

I have been told that this is caused by low potassium after you stop smoking, apparently eating a banana a day will fix it until your body catches up with the changes. I have not experienced this myself, but could be worth a try to see if it helps.

That is well-known to help with muscle spasms. Definitely give it a try!

low potassium can cause leg cramps too, usually for me a charlie house in the middle of the night.
Iv'e gotten in the habit of buying bananas at the checkout with the morning coffee.
Better than a doughnut for you anyway. Haven't been bothered in months.

The twitching is normal it has nothing to do with vaping. Unless , one side of your whole body is twitching then you can be alarmed. Congrats on quitting and we all have a twitch here and there. Have a great day Fellow Vapers!

Are you drinking more water than usual? Vaping can make you very thirsty, and you can inadvertently be flushing the potassium or magnesium (the latter is necessary to maintain potassium levels) from your body. Try adding some fruit to your diet.

Hey congrats on the twitch.

haha this is how i read it. i had to re-read it three times before i noticed what you really wrote.

 

[damthisisfun]

Funny - I have had the same thing off and on - I am thinking mine was bc of too much vaping......too much nico....not enuf water...

I've had/have the eye twitch before from time to time and it was caused by stress/anxiety which also caused me to smoke more and I'm sure that didn't help it any.
