Spasm in Cheeks

[nydryl]

Sitting drinking a Gin & Tonic, with lime, and every time I have a mouthful it's making the bottom insides of my cheeks react very oddly. The best way I can describe it is a short sharp spasm. I'm sure I've had this before but never bothered trying to find out why.

Is it the alcohol, the acidity of the lime, both, neither? I'm curious.

I have had this before, it's very odd. Not sure why it happens.

Too much MDMA

First signs of a stroke.

Looks like I better drink up and call the ambulance then

What happened to no medical advice

Call it before you drink up.

What happened to no medical advice

This is hardly advice people are giving.

Think FAST

Just in case...

Have you tried sitting down, to see if it stops your "cheeks" spasming?

Whenever I drink cider, this ALWAYS happens in my cheeks on both sides and I know what it is your describing. It feels like the cross between a spasm and pins and needles in your cheeks. It's weird. And consequently I don't drink cider anymore.

Too much MDMA

Is that possible?

 

[HamZilla]

I get this in my other cheeks and I don't even drink.

Not tonight anyway.

I'm still alive and well and the sensation has dulled as the gin intake has increased. Science in action
