Body vibrations when falling asleep or waking?

I had exactly the same thing. I thought the dog was shaking the bed as he does sometimes when I’m he wants my attention so I just thought it was him. One day it was so bad I sat up to tell him off but he wasn’t there. That’s when I thought oh-oh it’s me that’s vibrating. There is no visible movement in my body I just feel it mostly in my upper body and jaw.
I’ve just discovered if I move and stretch my neck out it stops for a while but comes back again. When I get up and out of bed I don’t have it at all.
I am 48 do yoga and meditate daily. I’m fit and well and even gave up drinking 2 months ago specifically to see if it made changes (it didn’t but ive remained alcohol free anyway).
I’m sorry you have the same symptoms but also glad cos it’s not just me losing my mind. The rest of the internet is full of essential tremor and Parkinson’s but those symptoms don’t align directly with this experience.
I am having a menopause massage next week and I’m wondering if it’s to do with tension in the neck and the way I’ve been laying down as well as estrogen fluctuations maybe. I have no idea. It’s disconcerting for sure.

NO worries. I have done research and this is mostly cause in the drop of hormones ( estrogen) after menopause. I already had a brain scan, neck and spine imaging--- yes I have mild scoliosis and I have neck compression so if I lift heavy stuff, I have this vibrations sometimes. NO worries it will go away in due time. I also am doing Pilates.
Same here. I also had a battery of tests. Brain scan, neck and spine MRI. Nothing. I just do Pilates and don't think about it. I now sleep good but most of the time I am stiff and feel a bit of vibration when I wake up. when i stand up and start moving, it just goes away. It is worse when I am sedentary. I feel stiffness and body aches if I do not move, stretch and exercise. Glad to know I am not alone.
Hi I am in the same position. Please let me know know if the massage works thanks

Just curious as to whether you had Covid a few weeks/month before your tremors/vibrations started? I'm older at 66 but always in good health. These freaked me out as well when they started and still do but not as concerned as I once was. I did go to see a Neurologist to make sure Parkinsons or something wasn't raising it's head and he ran me through battery of tests. Said I had nothing that even began to exhibit that so felt much relieved. But it is frustrating for sure. Best to you.
