YES. I am a 53 y/o woman who has always been healthy, athletic and active. I had a very mild case of Covid in January of 2022- almost no symptoms except for loss of taste and smell for 4 days. I recovered and felt fine, until September 2022. I started feeling SUPER shaky on the inside, exhausted and mentally foggy. My hand movements felt like a Parkinson's tremor although it wasn't visible. I went to my doctor and told him I thought I had MS. He referred me to a cardiologist, neurologist and auto immune specialist. They did bloodwork, muscle and nerve tests, stress tests and MRI. They all came back normal, although I was diagnosed with POTS and Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. It's July now and the last 10 months have been filled with internal tremors, vibrations, exhaustion, clumsiness and brain fog. I am embarrassed to have conversation with people because I'm afraid I'll sound ignorant. I nap every single day. I have to or I won't make it until evening. I feel my most normal when I'm playing tennis. The running and big motions of swinging my racquet aren't affected by my symptoms.
When lying in bed at a night, I can feel the internal vibrations and I have random muscle spasms and twitches throughout my body. I don't have any pain at all. This is the weirdest thing I have experience in my life.

I can relate to your issues as I have been dealing with buzzing, tremors, muscle spasms and just shaky inside which started May 2022. I’ve had all the testing you have had with no explanation. I’ve had 3 vaccines and a mild case of Covid. This was all before my issues started. I feel very lucky right now I am dealing with a buzzing tremor feeling in my legs affecting me around 6:00 pm everyday and lasts all night. I am able to ignore for the most part and hopefully go away with time like my other issues. I no longer wake up in morning with muscle twitches in my legs and arms. So weird! The internal vibrations were the worse since you don’t see anything. I have told people and no one has heard of this. So I don’t even talk about it anymore, I really believe this has something to do with the Covid vaccines or having the virus. Doctors don’t know what to say when they can’t find anything. So I wish you continued healing and hopefully it will just go away soon.
