Thought for sure I was gettin a phone call at work today - felt like it was buzzing in my pocket. When I checked, no missed call. hmmm.

I'm still new to all this MS stuff, but I think I'm finding out what my "normal" is going to be.

I just had this happen the other night in bed while trying to go to sleep. It started in my left foot and the next thing I know I'm having a duet including the right foot. It was interesting at first and them it became bothersome as it was preventing me from going to sleep. It eventually disappated.

Yes, it is a strange feeling and is considered to be one of the invisible symptoms.

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?

Rhiannon has this happen to the legs and it is impossible to sleep when it happens and it is impossible to stop it

There have been many attempts to try to stop it but nothing works

Default Possible reasons for buzzing

Fisticulations due to MS may create that buzzing sensation.

I find that if you research the proper terminology and impress the neurologist with your knowledge, they must confirm or deny the symptom.

If a doctor would try to prescribe anti-anxiety medication, I'd kick him to the curb and find a new doctor.
