“Before I was diagnosed with MS, I felt like I was sitting on a pager that was under my couch cushions,” one MyMSTeam member shared. Tremors can be a symptom of multiple sclerosis (MS), but some people experience vibration sensations without physical movements like a twitching eye or shaky hand. The vibrating sensation people with MS feel generally isn’t painful, but it can be annoying or confusing.
Medical professionals sometimes describe sensations of vibration as internal tremor or IT. Internal tremor is defined as abnormal sensations of tremors, shaking, or vibrations in the body that aren’t caused by actual movements.
