I have had some twitching in my eyes and my neck the the left of my incision. I am 4 days post op and am thinking I may have overdone it morning with company. I had several visitors for several hrs at a time. Should I worried about the twitching or is this normal? ---

Just remember, 'take baby steps', Gypsieme! Go slow with the company, just tell them you must rest after a few minutes. Please take good care to let yourself heal! I'm wishing you a quick and complete recovery! ---

Hello, SK gave great advice. I know it is tempting to do more when you feel better but it is so important to rest and let your body heal. I am sending positive thoughts your way for a speedy recovery. Please keep us updated on how you are doing. Hugs. ---

I also had twitching after surgery. Mine just stopped on the 6th day and never returned. Nuerosugeron said it was due to swelling and inflammation. Take it slow and relax! ---

I have been improving daily. Still not to sure I will make it back to work at 4 weeks may the 5th week I might be able to go back part time. Pain and swelling in my head & stiffness and sore muscles in my neck are still my major complaints post-op. But much improved compared to pain before surgery. Thank you Laurie for checking on me. ---
