Internal tremors

Posted by rsuter98 @rsuter98, Mar 14, 2023

I’m a 58 year old woman. Post menopausal and possible hypothyroidism that I haven’t gotten confirmation. I have had a ton of stress over the last 4 months due to family issues. I couldn’t handle it so I got on Zoloft for 2 weeks and then stopped cause I felt better. 4 weeks later I felt an inner vibration and starting getting anxiety about it and a week later I started having internal tremors especially waking and doing daily activities. I have had a lot of anxiety in my past and remember having these nervous tremors but not lasting this long. (A month now) started taking Zoloft again to see if it helps. Not yet but it’s only been 5 days. When I’m home and calm after work I don’t feel it. Unless I do some house work but not all the time. Only in morning and going to work as a mail carrier( physical work) stress does seem to make it worse . Just scaring me .Please advice

I don’t have any of the anxiety issues you mention however I get vibrations on the soles of my feet that go up the back of my legs. It’s as though a heat pump, air conditioner or furnace was turned on and the floor vibrates and I can feel it in the soles of my feet. This happens more if I am tired or didn’t get a restful sleep. Then the next day when I wake up the vibrations are there and quite strong. It would be impossible not to notice them. Wondering if anyone else out there has a similar problem?

I had them mildly and they have increased. A cart and horse of anxiety, not sure for me which comes first. As I wake up and move around I feel them less. Almost pre diabetic (working hard not to be through diet and exercise) and when my fasting blood glucose is higher it seems my internal vibrations upon waking are also up. I can almost predict what my FBG will be based on the internal tremors I feel especially in my lower legs and feet before I even get out of bed.
