Hello - this is so crazy. About 6 months ago I started having these weird vibrations in the left side of my mid back (right at the base of the scapula, but to the left of my spine). I just ignored it. It felt like it went away for a few weeks but then it started coming back again in July...it seems to be triggered by movement, either walking or talking or both. It doesn't happen at night in bed or just sitting in a chair quietly. But if I am sitting and I start talking, then it starts vibrating, like a low frequency buzz deep within my ribs. I felt like it might be my stomach so I went to the doctor and he said I have anxiety. It's not my stomach. He said to call him if I start losing weight or having night sweats. That was about one month ago. He knows I am prone to health anxiety.
Now, I've had night sweats of varying degrees for the past 8 days. I've taken to sleeping with only a light blanket because it makes the sweating less. I've lost three pounds in the past month. I just made another appt. with the doc because this is REALLY weird. The sensation is in the region where my pancreas would be. I am only 44, a female in otherwise great health. I'm a massage therapist and have never come across a muscular symptom like this before and that also scares me to death. This is literally ruining my life. I cannot go even 30 minutes without thinking I am going to die. I guess I am getting myself in a state where I can accept a death sentence. I keep hoping and praying I will wake up and this will just disappear - I have had many odd health symptoms that simply went away on their own. So I did go into this with a healthy attitude...but it has become too much for me. I hope my doc will take me seriously this time around. Thanks for listening to my story - I doubt I would ever find anyone with similar symptoms but I thought I'd give it a go.
