Body vibrations when falling asleep or waking?

Think I might have started this thread back in August 2022. There still has not been a single night that I do not have the vibrations just while falling asleep or when I wake up. Obviously don't know if they go on while I am asleep but I don't think so. Good news is that they appear to be harmless and have never gotten worse. Stress or something that wakes you suddenly will sometimes make them stronger but not longer in duration. Recommend just relaxing and let yourself fail asleep. Waking up to stop them just means you go through the cycle again. While there are replies that mention potential causes there is not a common one that links all of us to them. All of my medical check ups have been normal and I have no other medical issues and have not been on any medications. Would be interested if someone would test me while I am having the vibrations to see if they are real, a sensation or the source of the vibrations. Mine currently are in my upper abdomen. Good luck and let us know if you find out anything new.

The good news is indeed they appear to be harmless, but it does scare you when they first show up. I agree, the cause of this probably varies from person to person. I am convinced mine are either due to klonopin or covid or vaccine. Otherwise it was weird timing. The klonopin caused tremors, body buzzing, and weird eye nerve twitching. When I stopped the drug the eye issues resolved immediately, the daytime body buzzing eventually improved and has since left town, But the nighttime tremors/vibrations continue although not to degree they used to be. I am actually scheduled to see neurologist again next month as a follow up, although I can't imagine he will have any other words of wisdom for me lol. My initial visit was just to make sure something more serious might not be coming on such as PD etc. After a battery of tests he said he saw no signs of anything concerning. My question to him this time will be whether ones central nervous system can be more vulnerable during sleep than waking hours? I still suspect it has something to do with the klonopin as a protracted withdrawal symptom, which unfortunately can last for quite some time, at least based upon my research. Best to all in 2024.
