I buzz, or I call it vibrate. It is in all my limbs, but my hands are the worst. When L'Hermittes is acting up, I dip my chin and zap my hands. Ahh, it hurts to think about.

When getting an MRI, it gets worse and the anxiety it creates is intense. Pushing a shopping cart in store or parking lot is nerve frazzling.

You are not alone. I just wish there were something to take it down a notch or ten.

My new pcp gave me ativan for the vibration,said it's caused by anxiety or depression???? This isn't an MS symptom she says....she needs to talk to a few of the folks here...... Has anyone ever asked their nuero about this and if so what did they say. I've been away from the board awhile and am still undiagnosed, we have literally at this point ruled everything that can possibly be ruled out. I'm relocating across state and get a new insurance and new Dr. in Central Wsh. Hopefully they'll get the vibration thing figured out.

My neuro was the one who helped me put a name to the symptom. He asked me if I had ever sat or stood on an air conditioning unit (yes) and does what I'm feeling feel the same as that (yes). He said it's a sensory symptom known as vibration and/or buzzing.

Thav, since you don't have a diagnosis I have no way of knowing if your vibration is MS related but your PCP is wrong - vibrations/buzzing can be a symptom of MS.

Yup, I have it. My left foot/heal started buzzing the day after I had my first round of IVSM.

Actually, the buzzing was the straw that broke the camel's back, in regards to my "official" diagnosis.

You know..."separated by time and SPACE". I had a severe case on ON (which affected my eyes...when the foot buzzed, BINGO!

I've been sitting here at the computer trying to ignore the buzzing in both hands. Then I noticed it's at the arch my right foot and left ankle too.

Mine is magnified during/after an MRI. Anyone on a med to stop this madness?

I haven't been diagnosed yet, but I've had buzzing sensations frequently over the past two years. I've had them not just in my legs, but also my arms, back, foot, trunk, etc. (basically, all over!) It feels like a cell phone set on vibrate.

My buzzing is usally a signal that I'm heading into an exacerbation.

Good to know I'm not the only "buzzard".

I have the buzzing sensation on the soles of my feet. It comes and goes.

Default buzzing legs...a question or 2

May sound stupid but....I am wondering if we might eliminate or confirm some possible causes. (Is there anything we all have in common?)

My wife began feeling the buzzing sensation about a week ago.(She is 50) She also began taking thyroid replacement hormones, progesterone, Iodine and some vitamin supplements about 6 weeks ago, My wife and I are Christians, and we recently began praying in tongues, I know it sounds weird, but does anyone else have any similar experiences when their symptoms began? (OK, let me have it!!)

I have never "prayed in tongues", so I don't know what symptoms a person may get when they start doing that.



I was on progesterone at one time, but it didn't cause buzzing.

MS causes buzzing for me.

My sister has syringomyelia, and it has buzzing.

I'm thinking it happens to those of us with spinal damage of any kind.
