Internal Vibrations in Head at Night: What do I have?

I am currently trying to figure out what is going on. I do not think it is seizures but no one has any answers. I have been dealing with internal tremors at night in my head and eyes and I can not sleep at all. Waking me up and I fee an odd sensation in my body at times. I am dizzy during the day and I have tinnitus bad. I also feel off with my vision alot. If I turn my head quick or look at the TV too long I have a funky eyesight that shivers and a blank stare. It is very odd. All these symptons are worrying me alot. I feel like I have internal vibrations during the day also. Night time I am the worst cause I need sleep and I am not getting any at all. Last night I noticed my dreams were so off and I actually woke up biting my lip and tongue. Can anyone help? I am taking Gabapentin tonight for sleep 300mg.

I have no advice but have similar conditions ie internal vibrations and tinnitus. 40 years of tinnitus but I think it was a 'sharp" phone at work. Internal vibrations started about 4 years ago. I am 82 though. I think that is anxiety. I have had an unfortunate 10 years. Illicit drug mfg has followed me to a lot of apartments so I think the anxiety started here and that's when internal vibrations started. I have other vibrations in my apt also...feels like big fans are running. I don't have a Dr so do a lot of my own research. I feel 100% better when I get out of my own place. I'm 82 sobeit I guess!!

An epileptologist or a good neurologist might be able to offer a diagnosis. I hope you get an answer and, if necessary, the correct treatment.

Good Morning!
My last seizures occurred during my sleep at night, something completely new to me, as they used to happen during the day. Even though I had those nocturnal seizures, I can not remember them at all. My husband reported them to me. Perhaps I can not remember them, because they have evolved from partial seizures to tonic-clonic ones.
My doctor said that nocturnal seizures are something pretty common to happen in epilepsy, affecting many of us. But do please talk to your doctor about your situation and seek a medical recommendation.
Lack of sleep or lack of good sleep is a well-known trigger to seizures. I am currently having sleep problems as a side-effect of a medication. On those nights I had little sleep or bad sleep, I try to sleep during the day and also practice yoga nidra which provides me with profound sleep I am currently having very little. Having a watch that monitors my sleep has been very helpful in knowing when I need to take it easier in my day so as to avoid seizures and increase my seizure threshold.
All my best to you. I hope you can soon understand what is happening to you.

Thanks I do not have seizures and I do not think these are those but just curious on if anyone that had what I had going on. I slept last night with no issues, but did take Gabapentin. We shall see. I do not like medication so I am trying to stay away from that. I just have weird dreams last night so I could not fall asleep. It was odd, then I took magnesium and I fell back to sleep. So strange.

Thank you for your answer @lmcdonald1119
When I had severe problems with sleep in 2019, my doctor at that time gave me medication to help me sleep: alprazolam. Though I could sleep with this medication, I had terrible dreams and woke up very dizzy.
Check if all you are experiencing is not related to side-effects of the medications you are taking. Here is a link of Mayo Clinic to the side-effects of Gabapentin: https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements/gabapentin-oral-route/description/drg-20064011
How long have you been taking this medication? To most people, the side-effects are usually more and stronger at the beginning of the medication but do soften with time and adaptation of your body. It is a trial and error period which demands much patient's endure and doctor's patience and respect.
I also do not like these medications as since childhood I have been very sensitive to synthetic drugs. I and my doctor were treating my epilepsy the most natural way with CBD, trigger management, yoga, diet, etc. It was working well, but then I had two tonic-clonic seizures last December triggered by the great stress I went through with the health of both my parents (they are at the end of their lives). So for security reasons, my doctor has put me on an AED together with my CBD and will keep it for some time. Though the dosage is already less than the recommended pediatric dosage, I am having many unpleasant side-effects, affecting much my life quality. I hope my body adapts to this medication (it is the 6th AED I am trying) and/or that my doctor will decrease my current dosage once more soon. Thankfully, I am now in the hands of a doctor who is very human and does a personalized approach to each of his patients, respecting their limits and the functioning of their body.

Your symthoms may be seizures, medication side effects, diet or a pinched nerve. Are you taking other medication, one drug can interact with another.

I used Gabapentin years ago and was a zombie the next day. Talk to your doctor about trying another seizure drug. Don't eat and drink only water 4 hours before bedtime.

Not all seizures have the same symthoms and not all neurologists understand seizures. One neurologists gave me a 10 minutes EEG then told me I wasn't having seizures because I didn't flop aound like a fish.

Another neulogist diagnosed my seizures, had me under control, I felt better and foolishly tried to lower my medication and was hospitalized because of it.

I had another seizure while in the hospital. I don't remember it, didn't know until the neurologist came in afterwards and was talking with the nurse. Their conversation was: Nurse, "we heard him all the way down to the nurses station, doctor, "I would have thought he was faking had I not saw that", nurse, "we called in the stroke team". I now know that I screamed during the seizure and my blood pressure and heart rate skyrocketed. The hospital neurologist told me I had a seizure, prescribed the maximum Trileptal and left the room.

Get a second opinion if you aren't getting the results you want.

have you always had seizures? I think mine is medication - I have never had these issues ever and I am 42. I am going to try a new drug once I see a new dr. Gabapentin makes my belly cramp and also I shake the next day.

I struggled with this exact problem for more than 2 years. My dr shrugged it off and made it seem like it was in my mind. Finally I was so fed up I started researching it on Reddit and someone posted about similar symptoms. Another redditer piped in and said “take magnesium, l-methylfolate, vitamin D and B12”.

To my surprise, just adding magnesium helped immensely. Over time I added in the other vitamins recommended but wow the magnesium worked.

When getting no resolution from your physicians try the larger Medical Centers if you are able. ie Mayo, Cleveland Clinic, Duke, John Hopkins etc. Your previous physicians apparently did not draw lab work or all of that would have been detected within 24 hours.
