Motor fluctuations and involuntary movements in Parkinson's can manifest in various ways, including facial movements like eye twitching. These symptoms can occur at different times and on different sides of the body. The feeling of your eyelid getting "stuck" could be related to muscle stiffness, which is a common symptom of Parkinson's. Your observation about stress and lack of sleep is important - these factors can indeed intensify Parkinson's symptoms. Some MyParkinsonsTeam members have reported experiencing facial symptoms, including squinting and facial muscle changes, particularly during medication "off" periods. If this symptom persists or concerns you, it would be worth discussing with your healthcare provider, as they may want to evaluate your current medication timing and dosage.
