Suggest treatment for body tremors after sleep
human
Hello: I am 42 years old (black female, no children). For the past month, I have suddenly experienced having vibrations during my sleep. This only occurs during sleep and never throughout the day while awake. The vibrations occur immediately once I dose off to sleep. As long as I am just lying on the bed, I m fine. But the moment I doze off to sleep, the vibrations begin. :( I have never had any sleep disorders, anxiety or depression in the past. I consider myself very healthy female. Although I have taken a temporary 3-month break, I am faithful with regular exercise (cardio, strength-training and running). The vibrations are intermittent and constant throughout the entire sleep period. Yes, I am actually falling asleep, but it s just accompanied by the vibrations. Please advise. Thank You. Tanya

HiThanks for using healthcare magicSome patients get such kind of vibration while sleeping. These could be myoclonic jerks. In that case, there is nothing to worry. You can get your polysomnography done and that would help to get pattern of these jerks. You can take low dose benzodiazepine, that would help to get sound sleep. In case, you need further help, you can ask.Thanks
