What Causes Small Eye Tick On Upper Eye Lids?

Thank you. I have a history of sacoidosis. I have had some brief periods of lost of motor functions. MRI shows of couple of leisons that my neurologist said would not concern her if she did not know my history. I have been check up and down and have a small nerve conduction deficit within normal range on my cubital area of my arm on one side. My vision is good, no eye problems or nuero problems related to sarcoidosis at this time. Some impresssion that my symtoms could be progressive sarcoidosis in small increments, but nothing objective. I developed a small eye tick on my upper right eyelid. Doesn t close my eye . I don t think its visible, I think I just feel it. I have been having my usual caffeine fixes, plus a supplement that has green tea in it. I also noticed a small twitch above my right lip driving home after work. It went away and hasn t returned. Is my stress level which is high, my husband is ill and I am it for doing everything plus work, and my caffeine connection related to the ticks or should I contact my neurologist. I don t want to be an alarmist, I just don t want a stroke. I probably need more exercise and less caffeine. Do you have an opinion?
