GI Disorder and Internal Shaking

I’m so glad to hear you’re doing better! I still have the internal shaking and am not on any medications ugh. Do you mind me asking what kind of stomach problems do you have?

The doctors didn’t give me a definite diagnosis since they could not find anything wrong. I had endoscopy done, abdominal CT and all sorts of blood test but everything seems ok. So I feel like it’s more of GERD and Irritable bowel since I’ve been trying to rule out my diet too. If I eat high carb, oily and spicy foods it makes my tummy play up again.

I read your story and we have almost same issue before. I also went to see a cardiologist had ECG and 2D echo, did a stress test and they even monitor my heart function for 24hrs. But it’s all normal. But everything went away once I manage to settle my stomach. Thought at times it comes back especially if I have not been watchful of what I eat. Hormones seems to trigger it at times too.

Ive had constipation issues all my life, &every xray ive had turns out normal. Over the years it got worse.
But when it gets cold everything stops moving. The only way i can get any relief is go to the hospital most of the time. Please can anybody give me any advise?please i need help.

try Iberogast for gut motility. it is a combination of 9 herbs. it might help.

Thank you, i dont believe ive herd of that but im sure gonna try it.

Thank you for the information! About 8 months ago I broke my tailbone. Since then I have also been having difficult large, but regular, hard-to-pass bowel movements. I started having shaking upon waking up. At first I thought it was my heart. But I have a heart rate monitor and it was never irregular or in sync with the tremors/vibrations. It was rapid and I was breathless. I was hospitalized when I also turned out to have had very low hemoglobin and low iron and needed transfusions and iron infusions. As I recovered the tremors kept happening, so I thought it might be bladder cramping that triggered other internal tremors/vibrations, since it happened when I awake and bladder was full. I also thought it might be related to pelvic floor dysfunction or my broken coccyx but I just don’t know and nothing stops it, not any muscle relaxer or any other med tried. It progressed to happening throughout the day. I have noticed a connection between bowel movements, and having stool sort of stuck in my anus (I do have hemorrhoids). Now it is happening almost constantly and I’m sure it’s related to bowel movements but I don’t know who to tell or where to go for help since my heart rate is fine and it’s complicated by all my other medical issues including pelvic floor dysfunction, fractured coccyx, chronic pain, bowel surgery years ago due to peritonitis from diverticulitis which lead to a temporary colostomy bag and then repair surgery which went fine and I recovered well but have also had back issues including herniated discs and sciatic nerve problems and chronic pain. I’m now having numbness and tingling with the tremors/vibrations and it is ascending up my chest and neck to even sensations around the lower half of my face. I don’t know where to turn or how to even explain this to anyone. Thank you for your information!

Same here, I was informed i have diverticulitis, bloating and cramping, no constipation. I used to have IBS-mixed and now it's mostly constipation due to high blood pressure medication. They also claimed that my hbp medication can cause the tremors, in very rare cases. I am going to see a neurologist to ensure its nothing else.

So sorry to read this about you! I read covid has caused some issues like this, along the lines of persistent covid intestinal infection preventing the synthesis of serotonin. No serotonin affects the vagus nerve and can cause dysautonomia. A possible fix is taking SSRIs. Other complications from covid include reactivation of latent viruses or gut dysbiosis. Autoimmune diseases including celiac or even non-celiac seem to have similar effects. I hope you are able to get to the bottom of this!

This sounds exactly like what I have currently the shakes internally are scary I had four ekgs and CT scan of chest with contract iv fluids and now I’m running through allergy testing at Mayo and a stress test. I believe after investigating its food allergy and or histamine flare up related but can’t be certain. Seven years ago I was diagnosed with Pan colitis and cured myself from that with a healthy diet . To book with the internal shakes that only happen at night when I’m trying to sleep I had a uti so I have been on antibiotics for nearly 10 days. The d dimer levels were high so everyone thought possible PE but that God that wasn’t the case. It was a uti… anyway as soon as I figure this out or Mayo I will let you know the out come. If anyone else has feed back that would be great.
