Edit
I wonder what it is about the Motrin that was helpful in reducing your eye spasms? Glad that it worked. My first doctor that I saw to give me Botox injections said that there was nothing that I could take to help with the spasms. He remarked that "everything works for awhile and nothing works...at least long term".

In some ways, I think that he was right. It may be something about the Motrin or it might have just been that your body was given a new medication to "deal with". Almost like a sensory trick. Just a thought...don't know.

I have noticed that in the past, if I have taken a prescription pain medication for a brief interval, that my symptoms improved.

There are side-effects for all medications that we take so everyone should just be aware and use good judgment. Thanks for the warnings and experiences.

Thanks for letting us know that it helped, Men. And I think that you are right with putting it in a "bag of short-term tricks".
