Has anyone experienced internal vibrations?

Posted by redladyjoni @redladyjoni, Nov 26, 2018

I started having the only way I can explain it is internal vibrations. I've had them for 3 months now, I went to t hihe ER and they told me it was anxiety. A doctor diagnosed me at a clinic as having Lyme disease I've started a 21-day prescription of Doxycycline I'm on day 7. I went to a psychiatrist a week ago to get something because of my nerves are just over the brink. He prescribed me Gabapentin and Valium I've only been on them a few days.
Has anyone experienced these internal vibrations?I have them almost 24/7 chest neck stomach from the hips down. I have more lab tests that should be in today, but the doctor's office said that they would not call unless there was some abnormality in the lab work.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Brain & Nervous System Support Group.

You mean I should get a second opinion? After 2 tests ?

Yes yes yes. My psych nurse said it could be my medication. I have not seen the doctor yet but have a physical coming up. I call them internal tremors or quivers. Mine comes in spurts. I'll get them for a few weeks then go months without them then they come back again. I was worried it was a seizure thing. Because it happens so little I never think to ask my doctor when I see her. I hope you get it figured out.

Hello @joyousb, Welcome to Connect, an online community where patients and caregivers share their experiences, find support and exchange information with others. I have no medical background or experience but from what I have read, the symptoms you describe can have several different causes.

You mentioned that you haven't been to a doctor yet. Is there any particular reason you haven't made an appointment yet to discuss your symptoms with a doctor?

Have they ran a paraneoplastic autoimmune panel?

I have these internal tremors like an electric sensation for almost 2 months. at first they were only in the chest ... but over time or moved throughout the body (including the tongue). I feel them 24/7 but only when I stay. they appeared to me after an emotional shock and 4 months of insomnia (2-3 hours at night).

I did neuro control including emg, MRI on the head and spine but everything was ok. just the beginning of a cervical problem.

The neurologist, when I told him about the symptoms, didn't believe me, he just told me at the end that he thought it was because of the stress. I followed a treatment with citalopram for 3 weeks, I eliminated from stress but I did not see any improvement, the symptoms worsened. I haven't been taking my antidepressant for 1 week, but the symptoms seem to be getting worse.

Suggestions?

@novajeff how you feel now? are better?

(sorry for my english)

Sorry you are going through this. I am “better” than a year ago but by no means all better and back to normal. Woke up with buzzing legs again this morning and couldn’t sleep. Had a feeling it would be a bad night because yesterday afternoon I noticed it in my arms, hands, throat and tongue.

Comes and goes in waves now, getting worse every week or two before getting better again.

Hoping one day I make progress and it all goes away.

Hope you can find some relief soon.

Thank you for your response and I hope do you can back too normal soon!

Do you smoke or drink coffe? I do. What medications are you taking? Did you feel these vibrations 24/7 or just from time to time?

Thanks
