Vit B12 injections or under tongue (sub lingual) helped me.
(My bold text) Yes that's what I feel too when I get the "shakiness", that in and of itself certainly isn't primary anxiety.I've been through this. It would sometimes occur during the day but would be very severe at night. At first, I controlled it by using sublingual P5P at night, but that quit working. It was so severe at night that I had to find a solution. Even though I don't know what seizures feel like, I would feel certain that I was about to have one. It also caused me a lot of sleepless nights. Now I can treat it with calcium. I find calcium seems to be very soothing to my central nervous system. Ironically, I need calcium to stay awake during the day and calcium to sleep at night. The 1st time I took a dose of calcium (at 100% of the RDA), I felt like I had been shot with a tranquilizer dart. Luckily, it was evening, and I crawled into bed with my clothes on and slept better than I had in years.
It seems like the transition between wake and sleep is tricky. I've read that it's when a person is most likely to have a seizure. Also, some people have myoclonic jerks and hypnopompic/hypnogogic hallucinations; I've experienced these but not seizures (that I know of).
There also seems to be some connection to acetylcholine (ACh). I have similar responses to supplements that boost acetylcholine and calcium supplements. I need both and for very similar symptoms, but I cannot tease out where low ACh symptoms end and low calcium symptoms begin. I'm doing well on both, but certain supplements (like vitamin A or K2) will trigger symptoms that I can barely supplement my way out of and will take me a few days of supplement use to recover from, and again, I can't tell if it is because these supplements are pulling so much calcium into my bones or if they are using up ACh. I also think it's quite likely that I'm overlooking something. For example, why does my body not just pull calcium from bone when it needs it? There may be something necessary for my parathyroid to work that I'm missing?
The buzzing/vibration feels so awful when it's bad, and it would even make me nauseated sometimes. I hope everyone can find something that works for them.
