What Causes Electrical Pulse From Eyes To Hands And Feet?

I have had these electircal pulsed from my eyes to hands to my feet. I went of of 10ml of hormones and 20ml of lexipro about a week ago. Could this be a side effect? Should I start the meds again. Or is this something more serious? It started about 3 days ago.

Hello!
The signs that you're prescribing are not connected with any neurological condition or disease. It seems it's a sign of anxiety. It's not explained the reason you took hormones and lexapro and for how long. I don't know if you stop the treatment with doctor's advise. If not, you should see him/her as soon as possible.
Escitalopram is a antidepressant which is widely used for long treatment of anxiety disorder. Discontinuation of the drug should not be imediate, but gradually and supervised by a health proffesional to avoid reemerging of initial symptoms.
I would suggest to start the use of 10mg of escitalopram, in the meantime set the appointment with your doctor for further follow up.
I hope i have been of help.
