Body vibrations when falling asleep or waking?

You should also have your spine check or maybe osteoporosis. I also have Costcochondritis and the vibration is coming from the left side upper shoulder muscle. Long term use of Omerprazole eats up our bones. I have been on PPIs for over 10 yrs. and just recently knew that my acid reflux and Gerd could have been caused by my Costcochondritis. Now my Dr. asked to really quit the Omerprazole and I am just managing it with Betaine HCL and apple cider. My Gerd went away after doing the exercise to pop my ribs and Costco exercises. I hope GAbapentin is not habit forming like most anti-convulsive meds.

I'm taking only 1 gabapentin daily and not the prescribed 3. I'm also weaning off xanax. Down to 1/2 mg daily. I do have issues with my back so it very well could be coming from my back. Honestly, I believe it's injury to phrenic nerve. It's just too much of a coincidence that the vibrations would start the exact time I swallowed a huge gulp of air when taking meds and had pain at end of esophagus for 2 days. I googled internal vibrations then and it said that vibrations could be caused by, along with many other things, injury to phrenic nerve which can be the result of swallowing huge amount of air. I have googled diaphragmatic spasms and it fits with what I have. There is an exercise to do that stops them and that works sometimes. Whatever it is, the gabapentin seems to be calming it down. Addictive or not, what meds aren't these days?...the gabapentin is working, for now.
As for the omeprozole, that's why doctor went to 20mg from 40mg. I stopped them once and after 1 day I had indigestion so bad I wanted to puke. Baking soda works good too. Apple cider vinegar got rid of kidney stones and is very hard on the stomach. That'll eat your stomach lining. If it'll dissolve calcium deposits, you know it's got to be harsh on the stomach.

Gabapentin made me very dizzy! But it is not habit-forming.
I’m still wondering if melatonin has anything to do w these vibrations.
I had been on 20 mg. per night for more than 10 years. Then stopped and the vibrations were terrible. Now I’m back on only 3 mg. per night and along w the 7.5 mirtazipine am not experiencing the vibrations at all.
