Wow, thanks you two--it is at least nice to know this is not an unusual experience. Mine went away for a couple of months is and back. I thought it was gone and didn't tell the neurologist--so have to put this on the list for the next visit. I see my GP Wednesday, Oct 7. Will definitely tell her about it.

I wonder if the nerve damage that causes this sensation is from the hypothyroid too. A lot of things are starting to make a bit of sense, but I still have a list of tests to go through. The "vibrating" happens/gets worse after activity and I notice it when I rest--there is nothing to distract my brain from registering the sensation. The good thing is that it is not painful, just annoying and worrisome.

At least I won't feel like a freak when I tell the doctor about this nerve sensation. I really appreciate the replies, Thank you.

If you are hypothyroid... I would expect you to have foot issues.

This is what started me on the PN journey.

I get that sensation in both of my feet daily and I've got peripheral sensory polyneuropathy. Mine is still idiopathic and it doesn't seem as though anyone is inclined to try to find a cause aside from the usual suspects.

Thanks for describing it so well. I've wrestled with trying to do so for awhile until I finally gave up.

Ah yes, the old leg and feet buzzing business. It feels like a cell phone vibrating inside of your body.....

Shhhhhhhhh, I can't say this too loud...the cellphone has been really quiet lately in my feet, but I totally know what you are talking about. I have full body sensory neuropathy too.

With all of your other symptoms, have you been tested for celiac?
