Yes I have been dealing with the same issues after my vax and catching Covid. Muscle twitching, involuntary jerking movements, tremors, and just a feeling of "internal vibrations". I saw 3 separate neurologist who diagnosed BFS (Benign Fasciculation Syndrome). I still have it after 9 months and it comes and goes. Sometimes I don't notice it for a few days or a week and then sometimes comes raging back, especially when I'm physically tired or worked out. They all have said it's anxiety related but I think Covid has ramped up my nervous system and everything is in hyper drive.

Welcome @mikenewyork24, I'm sorry to hear that you have developed BFS following a Covid vaccine. There are quite a few different discussions and comments on BFS where members have shared their experience that you might find helpful. Here is a link with the search results that you may want to read through to see if it helps - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/search/discussions/?search=BFS.

Here is a related reference that may be helpful:
