chest vibration

[tanns]

Last night I had a vibration thing happen in my chest off and on for about 2 hours.  I am almost positive that my pulse was normal just fast (100-110).  It was scary but I didn't panic and my breathing stayed normal.  I have had a panic attack before (full on heart attack thinking kind) and this wasn't like that.  I was just wondering if the heart can be spasming and yet not be arrythmic.  Does that make sense?  Is an anxiety attack and a panic attack the same thing?  (I did post on the anxiety forum too, I just feel like it is a heart related issue so I thought I'd try it here too!!)

I have mentioned that I am heading to Mayo and I would like to go up there with only the relevant chest related issues and although I FEEL like last night was one, I really honestly don't know anymore.

Thanks you all and I hope you have a great weekend.

I have been having this sensation for 3 years now. Initially it was less often and more of a quiver/shiver, now it is a continuous vibration anytime I recline; with no change in pulse or bp.   It only happens when I’m lying down and wakes me up several times a night.  It seems to be worst when I lay on my right side.  I’m a 64 year old female taking no medication, with excellent bp (112/64).  I have had all heart tests know to my cardiologist and my heart is “healthy and fine”.  In the beginning, during my 2 30-day Holtor monitors and a 14-day Mcot event monitor, I recorded every time is felt this quivering and my cardiologist found no corresponding issue at those times.  I was very interested in posts by arthur (2/12/17) regarding neuromuscular disorders and linuxace (8/23/10) regarding esophageal spasms.  These 2 suggestions may be related so I will follow up with my gastroenterologist and let you know.

It's a nightmare I live in the UK and just started with this inner buzzing in my chest and do not sleep anyone, the only comfort is this website to see other people with it!

Hi
I have these vibrations and they are horrendous keep me awake all night! I feel like a electric toothbrush buzzing in my chest! I do have acid reflux bad so do you think that is what's wrong? It's driving me crazy!

Might be a spasm related to acid reflux. My cardiologist told me about that, but I forget what it's called. For me it felt like a vibrating worm squirming around.

Hi
I have had this for over a week now! Had many tests all come back fine so everyone thinks I am nuts! I feel my entire chest area vibrating inside so bad I can't sleep! The DR said it maybe a virus or bacterial infections! I feel perfectly fine but am so tired from not sleeping and getting anxious to what this is! It feels like a electric toothbrush buzzing in my chest and does not stop at all! I also feel it in my feet and pins and needles I hope I can find a cure to make it stop

HI,
I too have had the very same experience that you have described here. In fact, it happened last night. I have felt this vibration or shaking sort of thing in my back behind my heart. I have also felt it in my left and right arm. My bed has shaken and I tell you what, I am not sure what scared me more. It would have to be quiet a move to do that but it has happened.

It does give me some sort of unusual comfort to know that others have experienced this as I assure you, it may make you think you are crazy.

I think wearing the loop monitor is a good idea. I am going to call my doctor today.

Bless you and I hope you get better very soon,
A
