Tremors... weird feeling

16 replies

Underthestairsbears · 20/01/2022 17:42

It's day 8 for me and I'm still positive and I've just got this horrible feeling. It feels like I'm trembling inside my body, especially my arms and legs. If I look at myself I'm not trembling, it's like it's only inside me. I also feel muggy headed and still pretty tired but I was expecting that.

I just wondered if anyone else has had this symptom and if it's gone. I've had a Google and it sounds like it's a thing, but I've not come across anything that tells me if it's a short term thing.

I'm day 5 and have the same I think. Feeling better overall though tired but then strange wobbly waves though my body and a sort of sense of accompanying fear.... it's worrying me a bit..... Although I am not knocked out like I was I'm very up and down......

It's not nice is it. I was hoping that someone would come on and say they felt like that for a few days but recovered!

I've read many anecdotal accounts of people experiencing this symptom.

My son had this and it did go away after a few days. Not sure about anyone else's experience, sorry.

Yes. It’s my 5th week now and I’m still wobbly and trembly. I have moments where I’m ok, but as soon as I start using any energy, that’s it it’s back

Thanks for replying.

It's definitely a thing isn't it. It's such a strange feeling. I guess I'm going to have to hope it goes. I've got a very physical job and so I have no idea how I'm going to be when I get back to work.

Is it rigors from a fever or just feeling weak and wobbly and wiped out?

Cissyandflora · 20/01/2022 21:03

Yes I had it. I haven’t heard of anyone else who experienced it though so I’m almost relieved to read this- sorry op. I actually ended up in A&E on day 13 with the strange mental health issues. Anyway I am here to tell the tale and I recovered! All fine now. I had it at new year. I hope you recover quickly too.

Cissyandflora · 20/01/2022 21:04

And I had no fever, no flu or cold symptoms. But my heart was beating too fast. And I don’t know what was going on neurologically but something was.

So sorry to hear you're suffering OP. I haven't had the tremors as you describe but am on day 5 now and experiencing horrible feelings/sensations throughout my body, almost heavy feelings like my legs and arms won't move and pain with it. I feel it in my head and around my face too. Not all the time but keep getting bouts where it feels awful and I feel really dizzy. Really hope you feel better soon x

The internal shaking feeling is definitely part of covid and the anxiety. The feeling to me felt like when your blood sugar drops when you haven't eaten and exerted yourself and as if you are going to have a panic attack. It will pass, it is a very weird virus 💐

Underthestairsbears · 21/01/2022 09:29

@Mossstitch thanks, that's exactly how I feel. A bit better this morning though.

So many people have described exactly this!! The tremors and weakness are not due to fever as none of us that had tremors had a fever! So glad to have found this post

Hi, sorry to hear all this, hope it improves for you all. I had covid 6 weeks ago and got over it ok after a couple of days. Then started with these strange tremors around 3 weeks ago internally. It seems to be in my stomach area and legs. Heart rate is high with palpitations. This is still here now. It seems to be improving then I get a bad night and can't sleep. Seems to have affected my gut which have never suffered with previously! Not great.

I'm having this too. On day 12 and back at work but suffering badly from fatigue and brain fog. Think I will pop to our local health food shop later to see if they have any supplements which might help

Watsername · 01/04/2022 17:31

I had buzzing legs. I think it’s a neurological symptom. Thankfully gone now. It lasted 3-4 days. I’m currently day 10 and still testing positive.

Bluebellfae · 02/04/2022 18:25

I just came in here to post exactly the same thing! I'm day 5 still testing strong positive and this afternoon felt all weird and shaky esp my upper half. I feel dreadful today but def noticed this today 😞 sending hugs to all x
