Internal vibrations: Anyone else experiencing this?

I am curious too. I have something similar. I initially thought it was anxiety, but I had panic attacks in 1999 and it’s not like that. It’s more pervasive. It feels like a high intensity internally. An adrenaline rush is a good description of it. Like high pressure in my body. I’ve read some describe it as vibrations, but I wouldn’t describe mine like that. It’s severe intensity. I have checked my blood pressure during an episode before and it has always been normal! Odd. Blood sugar normal too. I have T1 diabetes. Well controlled.

I’m debating if I should start taking an SSRI and see if that helps. Neurologist prescribed it. I’m not sure what to do next. I also have taste/smell disorder, tingling/numbess in hands and feet. Not neuropathy, according to neurologist.

I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia, with pain and other symptoms starting five days after getting Covid. So I think I might also have some long-Covid issues. I have severe insomnia because I wake after about 4 hrs of sleep and feel like my nerves have awakened, like the "adrenaline rush" you mentioned. You said you are in treatment. Are you taking any medications that help relieve this? Like you, I stay home alot and also feel that my life is passing me by. Thanks.

I have similar symptoms and everything started shortly after I had Covid two years ago. I fall asleep okay (with Trazodone and melatonin) but wake after 4 hrs of sleep and can't go back to sleep. It feels like my nerves are being stimulated, like the shaky feeling you mentioned. Since your post in Dec 2023, have you found anything that helps you? All doctors recommend are the strong sleeping meds that have a sleep waking side effect, which I'm afraid to take.

I have similar issues. It comes on in the middle of the night preventing sleep. Since your pose have you found anything that helps?

Hello- yes it’s a year and i am still having inner tremors occasional buzzing in soles of my feet . All diagnostic tests normal …. Had EMG last week and told its normal .., so i said most be long COVID effects md replied back or could be anxiety .. i felt so broken after hearing that… i know my body it’s not anxiety ….not sure at this point what i will do from here
Hang in everyone …. Keep fighting

Autonomic Nervous System Dysfunction or Central Sensitization Syndrome, stuck in fight or flight. I had the Stellate Ganglion Block procedure done. Game changer....it is what started me on my path to getting better. I flew out of state to have it done on my own, no referral needed. Vagus Nerve disruption, also comes to mind. Calm the ANS. Sound bowls or tuning fork vibration therapy is another slower route to fix in my opinion, TENS unit, NAD+/NADH, NAC, LDN also needed.

Hi Ripley,
I have been in this for two years now, and have seen many, many doctors and therapists. The adrenaline symptom is just one thing I experience.

My hearing is wrecked, my vision is cloudy, my bowel has shut down, and I have the “adrenaline rush”.
Most doctors want me on an SSRI which I would be happy to take if I could tolerate. Many people get help from SSRI. For me, because of my ear issue it doesn’t work. SSRI makes tinnitus and hyperacusis so much worse for me.
Klonopin helps me, but it is a controlled substance and I take it sparingly. Many doctors won’t prescribe it anymore after the opioid crisis this country is still fighting.
Yes, my life is passing me by.
Good luck to you.

I’m in year four of LC. About a year ago, I started to experience internal and sometimes external tremors, particularly in my head, neck, shoulders, arms and hands. These would increase markedly with stress, speaking too long or lack of sleep. My face and shoulders would tic as well, particularly my jaw. I can say that these have greatly improved although not completely gone. I also had palpitations/pounding so profound that I could not sleep without the help of ambien. Those are almost gone, except for rare occasions. These all might get better for you, too!

I also experienced a GI phase almost identical to what you describe that lasted a few months. My digestion shut down, I was bloated with horrible gas and I stopped eating. Then I got bad diarrhea for three weeks straight. That phase has resolved. I take Miralax occasionally but, for the most part) I digest and eliminate normally. It might resolve for you too!

Daily headaches for me as well. Since I’m a lifelong migraine sufferer, I know they will never completely go away, but a LC headache feels different. That comes and goes (right now, it’s gone). I have found that certain medications can trigger an avalanche of them, so I just avoid. Also, this could be a migraine thing, not a LC thing.

Two months ago, I was almost disabled, walking around the house crying and wishing for a quick death. Today, I feel almost normal. I still get tics and tremors, but they are manageable. I don’t know why. Is it the course of the illness? Is it just a remission? No idea. Keep hope!
