Hey everyone. Once or twice I've had some full body muscle spasms/vibrations in the past, usually when I was sitting down. They didn't last for too long, and I figured it was yet another freak symptom that comes and goes. But last night they came back while I was trying to sleep, and they've been coming and going throughout the day.

Has anyone else experienced these? I just started a monolaurin supplement the other day, I don't know if that could be related or not. The spasms seem to be fully internal, I haven't been able to really see them going on if I look for them. Really hoping this goes away soon.

I'm on Mino, Fluconazole, a couple of herbs and several various supplements. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Edit: These spasms are most noticeable in the abdomen. I'm not sure, they're difficult to explain. I think I'm going to stop taking the monolaurin for a few days to see if that helps, I may have started with too much at once.

Hi Noah2112,

yes, I had a full body vibration before ever starting treatment almost 2 years ago or knowing I had Lyme and co.

Scared the heck out of me and I went to ER but of course no answers for it back then.

It didn't happen full body ever again but I did have vibrations and pulsing in my head, chest, neck,ear area for many many months.


I believe Sida acuta helped to get rid of those symptoms.

I also have to give some credit to Uncaria rychopylla as If you have Neuro Lyme Buhner says it is important to take.

Im not sure about the Monolaurine hopefully other swill help with that question.


If it is herxing, step up your detoxing and check out using a binder such as activated charcoal or zeobind t to help with the toxins.

Please check for all side effects and contradictions using any herbals or binders. As I am not an medical expert.


Take care and I hope you get relief soon from these symptoms.

Thanks for the info. I was really hoping that I wouldn't keep developing new symptoms after treating for months already, but you know how it goes. Hopefully this one doesn't stay long.

How is your magnesium intake? I seem to get muscle spasms when I forget to take my magnesium.

Early on in the infection I would have something like spasms but more localized every time that I would up my dosage or add a new protocol/abx. I imagined that it was the bacteria burrowing deeper into tissue trying to stay alive, and as it did, it would touch/activate nerves in the tissue. It would subside after a day or two.

I'm actually starting to suspect that a lot of my discomfort is stemming from the antibiotic I'm on. Most of my pain and cramping and vibrating feelings are coming from my stomach area, and the antibiotics I was on last month really wrecked my stomach. May be time for a longer break from them. I'm gonna call my doctor in the morning and see what he has to say. I'm pretty sure that if the side effects of the antibiotics are worse than my normal symptoms, it's time to switch something up.

I started having those vibrations 2 yrs ago before my Lyme test. It turned into tremors. Thought I ha Parkinson. Glutithione has helped. I take a braND with setria. I stop the tremors and vibrations within a week, but it is expensive.

Hi Noah 2112,

I have internal vibrations up and down my entire left side. I often feel it in my entire upper body, but it's mostly on the left. No one can see it, but sometimes when it turns up to its highest frequency, I can see my hand shaking a little. My eye also twitches a little bit.

My vibrations started early Jan, 2018, and they're still here. It's been six months. On April 19th, I found out I have Borrelia Burgdorferi & Bartonella. Apparently, Bartonella is often the cause of internal vibrations. Do you have Bartonella?

I find that my vibrations bother me the most when I'm sitting and laying down in bed, but they don't interfere with my sleep. I feel it at other times, but they're not quite as bothersome. Walking, driving/riding in a car and flying seem to make them disappear. The natural vibrations of these activities offset the vibrations I'm experiencing.

So far, nothing I've taken has hit the vibrations. My LL doc keeps trying. She's had other patients with vibrations, and she was able to help them. It appears everyone responds differently to the meds. If I could get rid of the vibrations, I'd feel close to normal. At least something's been working in my favor.

Thanks for posting. Some of the others who have responded shared some treatments that I'll be asking about.

I’ve been treating for bart too, but nothing like this has happened before. It’s pretty much only when I’m laying down and it really interferes with sleep. I don’t know if it’s a herd, a reaction to the medication, or the bart flaring but it started really suddenly.

I get quivers or vibrations in my lower left leg around the calf muscle. They seem to get worse if I exercise. I can sometimes see the muscle in my leg moving, I basically feel 100% better other than these vibrations. I don't know if they are from the bacteria still attacking my muscles/nerves , a herx (I'm currently on doxy) or if its just a result of damage already caused to my muscles/nerves which will eventually repair itself. They don't hurt but are distracting when I'm trying to fall asleep. I've tried magnesium supplements and Epson salt baths which haven't helped much.
