Do any of you experience tremors? I have had them off and on for the past few months, but lately they're coming on more and more often. It's very unnerving.

I'm not sure how to explain this to my doctor. It feels like my insides are shaking.

Does anyone take anything that helps with these? I have some serious anxiety issues going on. Is that what's causing the tremors/shaky feeling?

I have tremors, they have gotten better with treatment. Many days I feel like an electric buzz and slight shaking. Sometimes it feels worse on the inside then what you can see. It's a lymes symptom.

I have them too, same vibrating feeling, buzzing feeling sometime tremors/shaky hands etc.

Same here - I've had them for years, but only for a few months at a time. What I can say is that with treatment, I'm having less and less issues with them! It used to be that I couldn't trust myself with a full cup of coffee or tea, or a full glass of water or whatever because that shaking would start and I would spill things everywhere!! It always seemed that the harder I tried to not shake, the worse it would get, so relax as much as you can and allow your treatments to work!

Since they are coming on more and more often, are you detoxing well? And frequently?

My "outer" tremors have almost gone with treatment, although my "Inner" beehive I call it, is alive and well. Feels like bees buzzing everwhere inside. Sometimes my skin gets really prickly as well, but I'm not shaking anymore.

It comes and goes for me. Worse when I am fatigued. Beehive is a good word for it. It was worse the first few years, since '88. It is hard to explain to anyone unless they have experienced it for themselves.

This is one of my more severe symptoms. It's exaserbated by caffine. I have the beehive feeling, I tell my boyfriend it feels like I'm going to come out of my skin. In the beginning it would cause outward shaking, mostly my head. It looks like someone with Parkinson's. The muscles in my hands freeze in contorted positions, I get cold/clammy, and my jaw clenches shut.

My dr recommended I take a magnessium supplement since it is "required for the proper function of nerves, muscles, and many other parts of the body."-webmd
My tremors have become less outwardly visable. I'm also in month four of ab treatment.

Anywho, if your dr says ok you should add a magnesium supplement to your diet. Hope it helps!

I have this , the internal shaking , and the buzzing , even my breathing will feel trembly , I hate this symptom.. oh wait .. I hate them ALL lol.. I dont have a solution for it yet

I have this also, and trying to describe it to the Drs and others!!! It is like a beehive. It wakes me up from sleep, I hate it!

I have been told it's a lack of magnesium as well, I take supplements for that. It seems to help some, but it still comes and goes when it wants to.

I too have noticed caffine makes it worse, so I have cut back on that.
With time, treatment and a stronger immune system hopefully it becomes less. I had it so bad when I first got sick in '05, my whole body shook and my teeth chattered. It was very scary. The Drs couldn't give me a diagnosis then, and it went away for many years until the recent return of all my symptoms.

be sure to take the abx and magnesium 2-3 hours apart - I take mine 1st thing in am and last at night with a probiotic

My internal shaking comes and goes. My right eye jumps around like I got a bad tick. Maybe not the right word there lol

Hang in there treatment gives hope

Yes, most people don't have enough magnesium which can cause those shakes or tremors.  I use a product called CALM which is a fizzy magnesium drink.   If you decide to use this product, start with a little amount of the powder because it really moves your bowels!  smhair

Or at least stay close to a toilet!! Giggle! turn

Not only are we deficient, but so is the ground that most of our food is grown in! So the foods that we consume are all low in magnesium as well. Supplementing with magnesium is -unless told otherwise by your doc - pretty much essential in my eyes.
