Nerves Vibrating
 
One of the symptoms I have had since the beginning of PCS is my nerves vibrating in my body, especially when I am drifting off to sleep. It has been interrupting my sleep lately. I was put on Gabapentin to help, which helps but lately it has not been helping.

I was wondering if my body is stressed or tired, as I was doing a lot of cleaning over the weekend. The vibrations are both one-sided and bilateral, and happen while I'm awake and asleep (but far more often when I'm drifting off to sleep).

My neurologist told me it was the feeling of my nerves repairing. Has anyone experienced this and does anyone have any other ideas as to the cause?

Thanks!

Old question. How is your neck ? Upper neck inflammation can disrupt the nerve signals and leave them chaotic. Icing and practicing good posture, especially when resting or sleeping may help. It took me years of good posture for my neck to stabilize. Sleepybos neck exercises may help yours heal faster.

My neck is killing me. I have been doing those exercises and feel like I overdid them maybe. I didn't know that was what was causing the trembling feeling at night. I don't remember that being explained on here. I don't understand why the neurologist told me it was my nerves repairing and why I'm on medicine if its a structural problem. I'm still going to the nucca chiro but less often. I also have trouble understanding why the feeling comes on so strongly going in and out of sleep ...

I have cranial nerves that vibrate 24/7. Maybe the vagus nerve which goes down the body was damaged?
