View allI've been having this weird sensation where my left cheek and eye nerve keep twitching. It's been going on for a few days now, and I'm starting to get a little worried. Could this be something serious, or is it usually not that big of a deal? What might be causing this?
it may be physiological

I'm experiencing this strange sensation whenever I go to bed and move around, it feels like there's movement, and then when I stand up, my feet feel like they're moving too. I've been taking Neurocetam Plus as advised by my ENT doctor for the last 17 days, but this keeps happening every 8 to 10 days. The good news is that the sensation seems to become less intense each time it occurs, but it's still really concerning me. Any thoughts on what might be going on or what I should do next?
you continue medicine, it take time to cure.

I've never experienced anything like this until last week. I heard a loud pop in my brain, kind of at the top center, but more towards my forehead. Then I felt this sharp, radiating pain in that spot, and after that, it was just nothing. What could cause something like that besides a brain aneurysm? I'm in my 20s with no known family history of brain aneurysms, but I do have cousins with brain tumors. What do you think it could be?
