Inside tremor, earthquake feeling, twitches, pulsating

I feel that my heartbeat is all over my body....and is beating so strong that when I sit still my body rocks to my heartbeat.

I also have internal tremors and I feel like my heartbeat and the tremors or vibrations are linked to the heartbeat. When my heartbeats I feel an earthquake feeling too when I'm standing still.

I feel like as if someone is shaking my chair or someone is shaking my bed while sleeping. I also have random twitches and muscle spams.

I notice this sensation more when I pause or rest. so this means that the tremor/vibration/beats are occurring 24/7.

I have faced the following few months before ...

while I was asleep, I literally felt someone sitting on my bed and pulling me ... I was speechless and suddenly woke up but found nothing ...

second time also, I saw one hand pulling me when I was in deep sleep, but when I woke up it disappeared in front of me ...

Doctors told me it's Anxiety Disorder and the dreams feeling to be real are due to sub conscious memory activation due to anxiety ...

how are you feeling now ?

Found this and thought i'd share please note, you can suggest to the doctors this, and he will make a decision based on answers (so remember to share your full experience write down so you know step by step. (Please note this is the only thing i've seen on this, but its not necessary is this.)

Parkinson’s disease is a condition in which part of the brain becomes progressively damaged over many years.
The three main symptoms of Parkinson’s disease are:
tremor (involuntary shaking of particular parts of the body)
slow movement
stiff and inflexible muscles
A person with Parkinson’s disease can also experience a wide range of other physical and psychological symptoms, including depression, constipation, problems sleeping (insomnia), loss of sense of smell (anosmia) and memory problems.

Seeking medical advice

See your GP if you are concerned that you may have symptoms of Parkinson's disease.
Your GP will ask about the problems you are experiencing and may refer you to a specialist for further tests.

No tests can conclusively show that you have Parkinson's disease. Your doctor will base a diagnosis on your symptoms, medical history and the results of some simple exercises.
Your GP will talk to you about the problems you are experiencing and they may ask you to perform some simple mental or physical tasks (such as moving or walking around) to help with the diagnosis.
In the early stages, your GP may find it difficult to say whether you definitely have the condition because symptoms are usually mild.

Referral to a specialist

If your GP suspects Parkinson's disease, you will be referred to a specialist. This will usually be either a neurologist (specialist in conditions affecting the brain and nervous system) or a geriatrician (a specialist in problems affecting elderly people).
If your GP thinks you may be in the early stages of Parkinson’s disease, you should see a specialist within six weeks. If they think you may be in the later stages, you should see a specialist within two weeks.
The specialist will be likely to ask you to perform a number of physical exercises so they can assess whether you have any problems with movement.
A diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease is likely if you have at least two of the three following symptoms:
uncontrollable shaking in a part of your body (tremor) that usually only occurs at rest
slowness of movement (bradykinesia)
muscle stiffness (rigidity)
If your symptoms rapidly improve after taking a medication called levodopa, it is highly likely you have Parkinson’s disease. However, most specialists no longer perform this type of 'diagnostic challenge'.
Special brain scans, such as a single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) scan, may also be carried out in some cases to try to rule out other causes of your symptoms.

Hello, everyone, I am a Geophysicist working in oil industry, aged 25, athlete and happy satisfied fellow.

Iv been experiencing very similar symptoms, as everyone else is. The search for it on internet narrows down to Parkinsons disease or multiple sclerosis (MS). But seems its not it, as many who have consulted doctors have failed to diagnose it.

Lets put our everyday routines here, So we might be able to come to a COMMON STIMULUS for these symptoms. And few things which i have noticed in my routine whenever i feel it are Excessive exercise, Loss of meals, stress (work/home), and sexual activity or masturbation.

I have the exact same thing. We bought a 2 level 70's style townhouse a year ago and I started feeling the bed shake the entire night, like a tremor. I couldn't sleep for 3 days and was running ragged. Then I tried propping my neck up on 3 pillows and helped a bit but I can feel them. The sensation moved to every part of the house. I did some research and found that they were using sonic pile drivers to install segments of the new Skytrain and these generally drive all night until the day crew comes in and resumes construction. It stopped for a number of months but last night it began to happen again. No sleep. My wife doesn't feel it at all. My theory is that when I have an inner ear infection or sinus problems, or haven't drank enough water to resolve those issues, I become hyper sensitive to vibration. I am stocking up on Vit C and drinking lots of water and will see if this helps this next segment of construction.
