I Have Problems With Involuntary Facial Movement. Is This Happening With Anyone Else?

A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭
Houston, TX

I am on Topamax, get Botox injections, Emgality once a month, and use Ubrelvy. The anxiety and embarrassment of my issues are bad enough...but to now twitch! This is too much. I just want to cry and hide.

I was on tomapax but wasn't really helping. I get the twitching in my hands. Sometimes I can't really hold the phone or write because it scribbles or hands shake really bad. I usually keep my hands in my pockets to hide it. I don't want to bring it up because doctors will divert their attention to the shaking instead of my migraines.

I was on Topamax for 20 years and I had all kinds of issues. It started with feeling quesy then I had memory issues,then I had tingling in my hands that would be off and on and sometimes when I was driving.

Hi, could it be a side effect from one of the meds?
