Pain in muscles. Vibrations and Zapping sensation. Stressed . Supplements not helping

[Simsons]

I am seeing a neuro for strange symptoms. Mostly internal vibrations/shaking sensation 24/7. Did MRI, all clean for Brain, Cervical and Lumbar. The vibrations is mostly in back of my neck and sometimes travel to my feel and hands.

When I put lot of pressure on by back while standing in one position or sitting in one position for long. I get a zap sensation which travels from ground up to the spine. This is driving me crazy. Lately a new symtom is pain sue to the shaking/twitching. Pain is mainly in calf musle and my back , seems like cramps. v  Painful but can move around.

I am hypothyroid but well controlled with meds. A slightly low B12(206), all else is fine. Taking B12 shots, vitamins. Nothing helps. Muscle just move too much involuntary.

Would really really appreciate a reply. Please advice. Dr asking to wait...

Thanks,
Simsons

Will a lumbar and cervical MRI rule out spinal and nerve issues? If so, then they both came out clean for me. I don't drink or have any defciency. All Blood work clear.

I do have a computer job. Bad posture. Can a bad posture cause vibrations and muscle aches randomly all over body not just back area. Please let me know. So bothered by vibrations and muscle pain in calf and neck area. Some joint pain too.

Thanks.

Thank you very much for your question; although it is quite hard for me to give you a precise opinion here without being able to examine you, but I would try to provide you some relevant information about your health concern.

From your description of symptoms, it sounds that it could be a nerve irritation of back or could be neuropathy due to any underlying disease like diabetes or vitaminbB12 deficiency. People who work for long periods of sitting or standing jobs or do heavy labour work are at a greater risk for low back or disc problems. By the reason of that nerves from the spinal cord can be irritated causing leg pain and numbness, tingling, or weakness in the legs or knee. Few persons also face generalized body weakness and numbness due to other nerve irritation on back. Another possibility could be an underlying disorder like diabetes or alcohol abuse that may result in neuropathy (nerve pain like numbness and tingling at affected areas). If you suffer continuous weakness and notice reduced strength of muscle bulk in left leg, please arrange an appointment with your doctor right away. These “red flags” could be indicative of compression of the spinal cord and its nerve branches and early treatment is essential if permanent damage needs to be avoided. Further referral to a physiotherapist for spinal exercises could be beneficial and may produce relief of symptoms. Hope this help. Take Care & Stay Healthy!!!
