[|AI|]  Hi, I observe you have two complaints mainly. Mild Puffy eyes and twitching of muscles while in the prone position.  With age, the kidney function decreases and if you have blood pressure or hypertension, it add-ons to it and speed up the process.  As for twitching is concerned, it is usually associated with calcium levels in the body.  Potassium levels usually affect the heart conduction system and magnesium levels may cause muscle weakness and jerky movements.  Therefore, it is advisable to go to a physician and do your RFT and Serum Electrolyte levels with Serum calcium and magnesium.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
