Specializes in Cardiology

Insuffic Information: People can have nervous ticks, especially with Diabetes. I am not sure about what you are describing. I can only suggest you see an ophthalmologist and make sure eyes are normal and pressure is normal. The eye doctor can make further suggestions if he believes there is evidence for pathology.

A member asked:

If all the test have been done to rule out any problems would it be fair to compare benign heart palpitations to a eye/muscle twitch or a hiccup maybe? Cardio said he didn't think they were anything "physiological' whatever that means
