I got electrical stimulation on the back of my neck in physical therapy...
And now my eye is twitching like a bastard. No kidding, I think they messed up my eye nerve.

Bastards.

1. You got be careful with that!
My buddy is a physical therapist, and he uses that electro-stim machine for many of his patients. He had me clip an electrode to each ear-lobe once, and gradually turn up the juice. When I woke up, I was on the floor, drooling. I turned it up too much. It was really weird because it wasn't like a shock. I just remember getting light-headed, and a little "euphoric" then WHAM! They actually use this method to help people with insomnia.

If you hold your hand against a hot iron, that eye twitching thing will stop bothering you right away.
