It's kind of like the butterfly feeling you get in your stomach when you swing on a swing. It's mostly in my upper body and if feels like it could be anxiousness but I'm not anxious. It's a strange feeling symptom that comes and goes and I was wondering if anyone else experiences this?

I have experienced it. For me it was sort of like nervousness or like when a car hops over the summit of a hill quickly. Not exactly a bad feeling, but weird. I don't know what caused it or stopped it. I think stimulating the vagus nerve and taking care of the nervous system in general can help.

I have this too. It must be related to POTS and autonomic nervous system dysfunction in general. I have experienced this feeling intensely after taking L-glutamine too. I think it's a neuro-excititory feeling. Idk if that's a word but it is now 😂

Yes, I had that last spring but it started a year before that. It was the strangest sensation. Felt like I was on a rollercoaster. I was treating pretty heavily with oral then iv abx at the time. I started to get heart palpitations. It did feel euphoric at times and kind of sickening other times. It was the strongest just as I was falling asleep.

At times I wondered if it was acid reflux.

I haven’t had it in a few months thankfully. I think it was my autonomic nervous system completely out of whack. Maybe the abx were too much for me.

Also should mention I had a full cardio workup because the palpitations got bad and that was fine. I hope yours subsides. Are you treating with abx right now?

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the responses, it's just such a weird sensation that comes and goes sporadically. But what doesn't with this disease, right? Even stranger is that it lessens when I am outside.

Saraeli, you mentioned stimulating the vagus nerve - what's a good way to do that?

I use Parasym Plus for my vagus nerve it works well for me. I also use a tens 3000 machine that I got from my acupuncturist that has clips for your ear and hot/cold therapy works well if you have access to a sauna or steam room. I read splashing cold water on your face does too so I always do that first when I get out of the sauna. Also, apparently ~ singing 😍
