Ok, if the "86" in your user name is the year you were born, then you're way too young for even early onset Parkinson's (which is extremely rare - 1 in many millions worldwide). I know two people with Parkinson's and their initial symptoms were nothing like yours, so do try not to worry about this.

I'm so glad you mentioned this, I have had a fairly new symptom, like you upon waking and stretch in the morning (not all the time, it's only happen 3/4 times) my whole body tremors. It doesn't last long however, scary. And because of this and having seen neuro, MRI of brain, multiple blood tests, abdomen ultrasound, and many other tests. All clear, after a year I've decided to start meds.
Thanks for posting this, has helped greatly.

I get the internal "buzzing bees" thing as a member on here called it a while back. Its just the adrenaline. I find that moving about will stop it. Its more prevalent when sitting or lying.

The jerking thing is also common in anxiety disorders. I can't remember the reason for it without Googling but it well known so I wouldn't worry about these if your doctor has checked and told you there is nothing wrong.

The jerking tends to go as you start recovering but I find the buzzing is one that takes much longer to get rid of.

Hi Scaredgirl,

Don't be scared! Tremors and jerks of all kinds and dimensions are normal. Not everyone gets the same types at the same time, but what you describe seems to be part of the normal spectrum.

You've done the right thing by asking your doctors - trust them when they tell you what you describe is not a sign of an underlying illness.
