What Causes Vibrating Sensation In Feet, Legs, Arms, Hands And Abdomen?
What could be causing vibrating/buzzing sensation in my feet,legs,arms,hands, and sometimes across my abdomen. The symptoms in my hands and feet are constant. The sensation feels as if I have just gotten done mowing the lawn, and I have been left with the vibrating sensation you usually feel for a few minutes after you use the lawn mower. Not painful, just CONSTANT . I have had an MRI and dr says it shows no acute signs of MS, and they have referred me to a neorologist that cannot see me until January 20, 2016. My dr has said there is nothing else she can do. So I just have to wait until January, the appointment was given to me in July 2015 for the neurologist for 2016.

Hello,
As per my clinical experience, the vibrations involving peripheries can be related to vitamin B12 deficiency or other reasons, but the abdomen vibration is somewhat atypical presentation of any medical disorder. In certain cases of mesenteric blood supply issues, one gets post prandial heaviness, fluttering sensation but not vibrations.
However, an empiric intake of vitamin B12 and beta blocker as propranolol if not contraindicated in your case, would be fat better to get time period relief till neurologist consulting.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
