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.

Have the exact same thing. Only happens when lying down to fall asleep. I wake up a few times during the night and I always get these vibrations each time I wake up. It started in March 2022. So it’s been a year and no answers from 3 doctors. I wore a heart monitor for 2 weeks also wore a 24 hr. blood pressure monitor( have white coat hypertension) . The blood pressure monitor did show that my heart rate jumped really high and my blood pressure remained low when I woke up and had the vibrations. He was stumped and had no answer. Mine is not related to COVID since this was happening 7 months before I got COVID. Also no answers by my endocrinologist( I have nodules on my thyroid but no medication is needed) or neurologist. My CT scan and MRI showed nothing.

Interesting same as me the falling asleep time stuff. I also have a few modules on thyroid

Maybe you had covid before you knew ? I think I did when this first happened but didn’t know at the time then it’s been worse since covid/covid again. I have neurological symptoms covid dizziness etc they think this can cause super ongoing inflammation in brain

You could be right about COVID. Do you get any answers from your doctors? I can’t seem to.

I have severe internal vibrations all the time. I feel it in my the legs the most, and it's milder in my abdomen. I also have essential tremor. I can live with the essential tremor, but the internal vibrations are driving me crazy. I'm afraid my brain interprets the vibrations as nerves. I am on edge and in a fight or flight mode almost all the time. I have tried beta blockers (all of them) and they didn't work. Then I tried Topamax and I was unable to drive. I could get lost when coming home from 5 blocks away! Topamax seemed to help, but I became afraid to drive for fear of getting lost. Terrible stuff Topamax!

I don't know what to do. It's difficult to sleep at times. The fact that my brain (personality?) interprets them as being nervous is the worst. If someone has had success with a drug or other treatment please let me know.
Thanks

My whole body feels like a tuning fork. All over, rapid vibration. I am just happy it stops for an hour or some but over its constant

Have you ever been exposed to ticks I was exposed as a young child in the Adirondack Mountains I know I had ticks on me and at that time antibiotics were not given I have a vibration feeling often in my body which seems to make me feel weak at the same time. I've experienced this twice in the past and was diagnosed with Lyme disease it will show up in the blood when a Lyme test is given . Thank God intravenous antibiotics were finally given. oral antibiotics simply don't work I got over it in about 6 weeks each time and was fine for many years until it seems it comes back especially it seems if I am overly tired. I have this at the present time and will be looking for a doctor to put me back on intravenous antibiotics. I can't believe how ignorant many doctors are about Lyme disease.

I too have had internal vibrations but my lyme disease test came back negative.
Over three years of this and seeing every specialist under the Sun and a million different tests too and last week my new Arrhythmia doctor told me my symptoms sound exactly like Vagus Nerve damage and problems with my Autonomic Nervous System. Vagus nerve malfunctioning falls under the Dysautonomia umbrella of symptoms affecting the Autonomic Nervous System.

The malfunctioning of your Vagus nerve can negatively affect every part of your body from brain, breathing, BP, pulse, bowels, vision and sensory issues

This doc has some good information. Check out this video …

I had internal shakiness before I found out I have Celiac and Microscopic Colitis. I am allergic to wheat, soy, cow's milk or casein, Aspartame, and more. My only friend is rice and thoroughly cooked vegetables.

I have been experiencing tremors, internal vibrations, trouble walking and talking. I've got to get a second opinion because my neurologist doesn't think it's anything to worry about. I have RA, Fibro, MCTD, and other things. I'm thinking MS because I have never heard of the other diseases cause this trouble. Any ideas?

Sounds like Parkinson’s disease

..I wish years ago when I asked my familly dr if it could be vagus nerve, especially with ibs-d and before every rush to bathroom head would tingle and he bluntly, as usual, said: no! Also said no when asked if I had Sojerns (sp?) and he just said no (even tho 2 dentists and optometrist said to ask dr as mouth and eyes so dry, like a desert); and also when I asked if had milk/dairy sensitivity, answer was no. This was at different appointments for other things and just asked the question. Few years later after an antibiotic, and change in meds got the shaking inside and Neurologist even though did interview over zoom based on symptoms and he had me draw a spiral on paper and show it to him said: Internal Tremours, but not why. So I would think could be a variety of reasons? Now I have a laundry list of problems I think I am a "hot potato" with drs and even Nurse Practitioner office I eventually ended up with told me too many contacts/visits: nice way to treat someone almost 80 now!! Glad over the years did meet some amazing doctors!

I haven’t experienced them to that extent, but I feel a buzzing sensation in my sciatic nerve almost daily. I’m sorry I’m no help, but it is a very weird feeling. I hope you get some answers.!
