Has anyone felt internal vibration?
I have ventricular tachycardia. I had an ablation in 2015 and am a cardiac arrest survivor. In 2017 I begin experiencing internal vibration that comes and goes and generally is in my left leg area. My doctor did an MRI as well as nerve conduction tests which came back normal. I recently read this vibration can be caused by heart arrhythmia and show up in areas away from the heart…. Has anyone experienced this and if so what did you do to reduce vibrations?

I don’t know if my vibrations have the same cause as yours but mine seems to be when I’m having crazy irregular premature atrial contractions or premature ventricular contractions. I have a lot of PACs, but sometimes they are worse. I have functional mitral regurgitation which probably is worse when I get the uncomfortable pauses. I use a welllue continuous ecg I strap on my chest. It doesn’t show my p waves as well as my Kardia. I’ve found doing ear vagal nerve electrical stimulation calms my PACs down most of the time. My devices think I’m in afib a lot, but I’m not, my afib is stupidly dramatic. I’m hoping my second ablation nails the source of my PACs.
Intermittently over the years, I have experienced an electrical vibration sensation more on the right side of my chest. Mine has nothing to do with my heart. I have tight fascia (connective tissue) which I’ve been told can irritate or compress nerve fibers causing these sensations. It was a physical therapist who knows my body very well that said this. These sensations are not painful, more like a buzzing. They have always gone away.
