Chronic eye twitch and facial spasm

About 4 yrs ago my left eye started to twitch. Over time it became more consistent and stronger. Now, especially when I talk or read, my eye squints involuntarily. A friend took Arum Triph. and got very quick relief from her eye twitch. I tried Arum Triph 6c and Selenium Met. without success.

1. There are no obviously related symptoms.
2. It is intermittent and doesn't seem to be better or worse except when I talk or smile it is worse.
3. I have a lot of responsibility and stay very busy. But I get plenty of rest and have control over my time.
4. Mentally, there is a certain lack of joy because I feel I have little time for a hobby or relaxation.
5. As a child I had measles and chicken pox and have had seasonal allergies for nearly 50 years.
6. I don't take any regular medicines and don't usually have bad reactions to meds I have taken.
7. Years ago I tried homeopathic meds for my allergies without success. Possibly due to not knowing the right remedy.
8. An MRI a couple of years ago showed no abnormalities.

I'm not sure what to look for in the Remedy Finder since I don't have additional symptoms or factors that seem to affect the symptoms. Should I look under eye twitch or, now that it has progressed, would facial spasm be the primary symptom? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Please take Nux Vomica 200c thrice a day at a gap of 4 hours for only one day (not daily) and see how it in the next 15 days.
If there is no significant change after 15 days of taking Nux, Please take Gelsemium 200c thrice a day at a gap of 4 hours for only one day (not daily) and report back after 15 days

One dose means
If the medicine is in pills form 4 pills. Don't touch pills with hand. Use cap of bottle to take pills.
If the medicine is in liquid dilution form, 3-4 drops in some 20 ml water. Sip up slowly.

Please follow homeo restrictions like no coffee, no raw onion/garlic, no strong perfumes, don't eat or drink anything within 30 minutes before or after taking medicine.

Thanks so much for the suggestion. I will try this and let you know what happens.

Does this mean I should not have coffee or raw onion on a sandwich during the 15 days or just not around the time I take the medicine?

I took the 2 remedies as suggested with no definite response. Kadwa requested I report back. What should I try now?
