Buzzing vibration with pins and needles in both arms and upper body

Hi. 4 weeks ago I woke up with a tingling sensation in my left hand. No pain or loss of feeling, only the feeling you get when you sit on your arm for too long. After a few days it spread to the other arm and now it has engulfed my entire upper body and both arms. Whenever I bend my head down towards my chest my entire upper body vibrates like crazy including both arms.
It gets worse when I sit compared to walking. When I lay flat I feel fine.
My GP told me not to worry as the MRI was clean and told me to come back after 6 MONTHS, which is insane.

I hit my head in May and had a CT and a MRI scan. Both came back clean. I have gone through a painful depression and anxiety period, but I have troubles believing that is the cause as the vibrating sensation comes when I bend my head and not when I feel up or down.

Has anyone ever encountered anything like this before? It is driving my crazy. It feels like a thousand cellphones has been taped to my upper body and vibrating.
