Internal Vibration Sensation

I had a couple of episodes where the base of my neck vibrated so much it woke me out of a dead sleep and I could not move. Terrifying… Lasted for about 20 min. while awake then stopped and I was fine. So strange.

So Avena Sativa might help with the tingling/burning? This is a new one for me that my hands & feet get ice, ice cold, but then later will be tingling/burning. All these concerns & concoctions--hard keeping them all straight!

All I can tell you is that it helped me. It helps to heal the nerves, so it helps many of the conditions that we deal with.

I am getting these buzzing spots again with this 2nd round of Lyme for me - but when I first noticed it I was living in a travel trailer. Before hubby was disabled, we traveled for his work, so a travel trailer was our home away from home. I was on the bed trying to take a nap one day and I thought we were having small earth quakes! LOL! It was the only thing I could think of that would have cause it!!

I actually typed a post on here not realizing I said pretty much the same thing in my earlier post lol

I often start the day with some mild vibrations in my left knee and was very happy not to have them today. I did very well without them all day today and now they are back - yuck.

I'm going to research that stuff Trav took ;) Thanks for sharing!

I was reading about your buzzing and vibrating. And my chest feels like a cell phone is vibrating on it in the morning when I wake up.
It does not hurt-- just a strange feeling!

Add me to the list of "vibrators." It just amazes me that most docs have never heard of this symptom. A quick Google and you can find 100s of people reporting this. It seems to be pretty prevalent in folks with Lyme, CFS, Fibro, MS and in benzodiazepine withdrawal. All conditions that can affect the central nervous system.

For the record, my vibrations seem to happen only when waking up from sleeping and sometimes when I'm just on the verge of falling asleep. And it also feels like I have a cell phone on vibrate embedded near my sternum. I have pretty bad sleep maintenance insomnia and I don't know for sure that it's the vibrations that wake me up or if the vibrations are happening while I sleep and I just experience them during my multiple awakenings that occur for some other reason.

It's also almost always accompanied by some amount of GI disturbance. Sometimes a mild stomach pain. Sometimes just some gurgling. I also have the vague feeling that I was having trouble breathing. But this could just be because the vibrations make it difficult for me to feel myself breathing. I found that getting out of bed and/or doing some deep breathing stops the vibrations at least temporarily. But then they just start up again when I get back in bed and start dozing.

This all leads me to believe that it's some sort of vagus nerve issue. That's easy to say of course since the vagus nerve is so involved in all autonomic nervous system functions (which would explain the sleep connection).

I wish I had some answers on this one. It's my worst symptoms right now.

I definitely had this from the beginning. One of the specialists my primary sent me to in '88 did the tuning fork on my knee, and I said "Thats it"! Thats what my spine does! All the way from my head to my toes! And of course he gave me the raised eyebrow, skeptical look and said "well, thats a new one...." You are probably all familiar with that look.
It does get better. I find that when it happens now I can take some magnesium and it improves. It is from Lyme and can cause anxiety, but is not just anxiety. Like Roxie said, its physiological.

Was my second symptom - but the one that made me realize something was VERY wrong with me!

Still with me today!

Hi rogerdpack. Welcome to our community!


I didn't read the blog post entirely...maybe I'll have some time later.

Have you been diagnosed with Lyme disease? What are you attributing the vibrations to ...I see you mentioned weight gain?





It is against the forum rules to post links to personal blogs...but it is acceptable to put the blog in your signature line.

I know this is an old post, but I'm wondering if anyone has found relief from their internal vibration.

I've been vibrating for over 18 months. Mostly on my left side, but sometimes I feel it all over. Diagnosed with Lyme and Bart April 2018. Treated by NPLLMD since April 2018.
I've seen a neurologist and had an MRI. Everything is perfect. Hmmmm

I just started taking Lion's Mane a few days ago. I'm hoping it might do something.

I saw where Traveler said Avena sativa (milky oats) helped hers. I only had what I described as chills on the inside when symptoms first started 10 years ago. Most recently I have developed a numb feeling in my lower legs that has a strange but extremely faint sensation with it that I cannot describe. It’s similar to vibration, buzzing, or tingling but it is very faint. I don’t know what made it start unless it’s mold, as I got hit hard from that recently. I don’t like the feeling. Makes me nervous. I notice it the most when standing still.

Please report back on Lions mane. I just started it a few days ago, too. Started with 2 drops since I am extremely sensitive right now.

I’ve had vibrations/buzzing in lower legs since 2015 - it started along with other nervous system symptoms. I sometimes get it in my tailbone & chest area - but those come & go, unlike lower legs. In the last few weeks I’ve been having vibrations at night in my nose/mouth area. A bit worried that I’m getting it in another area. I did go to our lakehouse a few weeks ago which was water damaged and has mold.

I have had periods where the buzzing is soft but it has never fully went away.
