Welcome @sharho. Because your symptoms appear to be related to long COVID, I moved your post to the Post-COVID Recovery support group here: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/post-covid-recovery-covid-19/
Fellow members like @vash @vonpinnon @robinholly @aae @pattykakes have all mentioned dealing with internal vibrations in this related discussion:
- Anyone Found Help/Explanation for Long Covid Neurological Symptoms https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/long-covid-neurological-symptoms/
They may have some experiences and tips to share with you.
@sharho, I find it curious that you get these vibrations when you are in presumably relaxed states, like falling asleep, upon waking or while meditating. I'd like to think this is part of the healing process (not a medical opinion). Do you have other neurological symptoms?

Hello, I’ve had long Covid since 6-15-20 and off and on have had vibration , I know people don’t believe me when I told them but I know how you feel.
It happens to me most in relaxed states but now it’s happening even when walking driving talking… “there is a demon in me” lol but honestly I am experiencing 9 months into long Covid.
Hi everyone-I haven't checked any of the responses in so long and have now read them all. Thank you so much for sharing. My update is that I began to think of the internal vibrations as a part of the healing process (suggested above by our admin Colleen). THANK YOU COLLEEN!! It, at the least, kept me from a loop of catastrophizing and allowed some space for what became full-body "thrumming" since December 2021. It lasted one year. With the help of Internal Family Systems and trauma work, meditation, continuing to watch all inflammation (I take high-grade supplements for inflammation every day and occasionally Celebrex), intuitive movement and something I have come to call Intuitive Tactile Waking (basically waking my body up by self-massage at a very quiet and calm pace), the thrumming aka Internal Vibrations just stopped one day in December 2022. It was suddenly so quiet. I had no idea that it was so internally loud with them. I think I needed to wake up my body due to disassociation from Long Covid for 2 1/2 years and the intuitive movement (not just your regular prescribed PT and performative gym stuff) helped me heal. That was my last long covid symptom. I have hope! I wish everyone continued patience and healing on their path. I will say that my functional doctor was absolutely KEY to all this and my meditation teacher gave me a workable set of tools that changed my life. Stay curious on this difficult path. Much love and support
I have had internal vibrations for almost 2 yrs and I'm desperate. I did not get vaccinated. It seems ok if I'm alone and thank God I can sleep. My right leg tremors, but I can stop them if I try and they stop when I sleep. Ive had MRI's, one of brain and spine with contrast and all ok. I have had blood tests, a heart monitor, stallate ganglion injection, you name it. Any answers or suggestions?

@colleenyoung ,
I too have experienced internal vibrations for the last year and a half. I've met with 3 neurologists now with no solutions that have worked. Mine are always at night when sleeping or trying to go to sleep. They've moved around everywhere, now they're mostly in my head and chest. The difference for me though is that I have not had Covid that I'm aware of. Can you direct me if there's another group on this topic? Thanks!
