Hi there.

Myokymia is abnormal twitching of the muscles. Since half your face it twitching, your Doctor suspects brain disorder and is asking you to get a Brain CT done. I would advice you to reduce the stress in your life. You seem to be in lot of stress,. Do deep breathing exercises, meditation, Yoga. Get 6-8 hours of sleep daily. Avoid working long hours. Eat healthy. Keep well hydrated. Exercise regularly. Avoid coffee, chocolates, smoking, alcohol. All this will help to reduce stress induced myokymia. Once the CT scan is done, according to what abnormality in the brain is there, the treatment will work accordingly.
