Anyone have Vagus nerve problems causing strange, unnerving symptoms?

My son is having some of these same things going on. He hasn't been diagnosed yet but just wondering if you have any numbness on either side of your body?

I don't know if you still look at this but I had similar experiences with internal tremors plus I also had peripheral neuropathy in both feet last summer. I was sent to a neurologist who insisted that I was diabetic even though I am not. Finally, after many tests, the neurologist stumbled onto the fact that I was actually suffering from vitamin B6 toxicity. I didn't realize how much B6 I was consuming in my daily vitamin along with a B-Complex vitamin. She had me stop all B vitamins and it took several weeks but my symptoms went away. This may not be what is going on with you but I'd had my B6 checked just to make sure.

Thanks for the update. In my case, with gastroparesis and a renal diet and diabetes, I don't get enough B vitamins. Medical team has said partly due to gastro and diabetes but even more so due to years of Zoloft. (NOW they tell me!)

The strange thing about vitamin B6 is that a deficiency in that vitamin can act the same way as too much of it can.
It may have nothing to do with your problem but you might want to look into supplementing with B6 and B12 if your doctor is on board of course. I definitely sympathize with the internal tremors. I thought and so did the neurologist that I probably had Parkinson's or MS at first. Best wishes concerning your health.

I do! Your description of this as 'unnerving' is exactly how I describe this condition. I have suspected that a brief stint on the prescription drug, Cymbalta, had lead to this awful condition, but can't be sure. I have been scouring the internet to try to figure out how to get relief. My doctor has not been helpful in addressing these symptoms.

@healthseeker77 I have had these large bowel movements followed by heaving till I throw up bile about two or three times in a year. They always happen very early in the morning.

My doctor sent me for an abdominal ultrasound which showed fatty liver (which I have had for about twenty years) and some scarring of the liver which is a new development. So she sent me to a gastroenterologist for a liver biopsy. Gastroenterologist says I am only at Stage 1 for cirrhosis and nothing to worry about - just keep cholesterol levels down and eat less carbs. Strange, because the liver biopsy was quite painful. I have had two liver biopsies in the past eight or ten years and neither of those hurt. 🤷🏼‍♀️

For 20 years I have suffered from nerve pain in my right shoulder near my neck. After 10 years of trigger point injections in my shoulder blade I had an ACDF, which was a failure, and then a laminectomy on my C-5-6, 6-7 eight years ago and was told I would eventually need surgery on upper discs. After seeing my neurosurgeon three times since with additional sciatic nerve pain, pain management doctors, meds, nerve blocks, trigger point injections and epidurals, he informed me that my C-1 and L-5, S-1 were compromised but he couldn’t help me.
I have been seeing an incredibly qualified massage therapist for 20 years. I see him every week and sometimes twice. If it weren’t for him I don’t know where I would be.
In the last 3 months I have developed painful digestive issues after NEVER having digestive issues, dizziness when standing or when I’m talking with my hands when sitting or standing, nausea, hoarseness, difficulty swallowing meat and pills, and increased nerve pain in the entirety of right side of head affecting my eye, jaw and neck and shoulder. I have limited, painful mobility in my neck. I scream out in pain from my neck and spontaneous nerve pain throughout my body.
I spent 10 hours in the ER 3 weeks ago after the onset of the digestive issues mentioned above followed up with an endoscopy. Started medication for gastritis and told to call if I didn’t get better. I now have an appt with the GI doc to look at my pancreas a bile ducts.
Five years ago I was diagnosed with Stage 2 Triple Positive breast cancer fueled by estrogen. I began 20 rounds of chemotherapy, bi-lateral mastectomy, 5 years of Letrozole, an estrogen inhibitor which itself caused bone and joint pain. As of two weeks ago I was considered cancer-free which meant I could cease the Letrozole. Symptoms from it may linger for who knows how long.
Prior to my Breast Cancer journey I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia.
So many of my symptoms from each of the above overlap and I feel like I’m losing my mind as well as my quality of life. I spend 80% of my day on my back with ice packs from my neck to my lumbar. I sleep with an ice pack tied around my neck.
Four weeks ago after my massage therapist had been researching my condition with intensity he suggested that I may be suffering from Vagus Nerve Dysfunction. NOT ONE of the plethora of doctors I have seen in the last two months have mentioned the condition. Neurologist, neurosurgeon, cardiologist, gastroenterologist, primary physician, internist, pain management doctors. Not one.
My massage therapist recommended that I try to get an appointment with Mayo in Jacksonville as I live in Mobile, AL. Any recommendations as to my best chance of them taking me on? I am desperate.
Thanks for letting me vent.

I had esophageal banding done for varices which basically is bans put around enlarged blood vessels in my esophagus so they don't bleed. I have cirrhosis and this procedure is pretty common, what isn't is the fact that ever since I had it done I can't eat without my heart pounding for hours and blurry vision, burning in the side of my neck and down the middle of my chest, hoarse voice ect. All symptoms of a damaged Vegus nerve. I believe that it was damaged during the procedure. I'm miserable. I can't eat solid food without being u all night with a pounding heart with scary palpitations in between. I don't know what can be done because healing a damaged nerve can be permanent or take years to heal. Any advice?

I've already commented but I still haven't found an answer, I have cirrhosis but my gi Dr said he's never had anyone else with these symptoms. I can't eat or have anything in my digestive system without having a ton of nuerologic symptoms. Internal vibrations, blurry vision, dizziness, balance issues, heart pounding, sharp pains, all Vegus nerve stuff. Why these nerves are all the sudden so sensitive I don't know but all my Dr can say is anxiety. I don't feel anxious but I'll take the meds or any meds that will stop this. I can't function anymore. It's completely dibilitating. 😖
