I'm not sure what's going on, but I've been having these weird internal vibrations, mostly in my legs. It's almost like there's electricity running through them. I took PPIs for about 46 days, but they didn't help at all. I'm also noticing my muscle mass is just wasting away; my legs, chest, stomach, hands, everything feels soft and kinda loose. I can literally pull at the skin. Besides the vibrations, I'm dealing with weakness, some vision loss, numbness, and difficulty breathing, especially when I'm reading or working. With the lockdowns happening, it's been tough to get help. Can you please help me figure out what this might be and suggest any medications or treatments?

Possible Causes:
- Vitamin deficiencies: Lack of vitamins like B12, magnesium, or potassium can cause muscle weakness, numbness, and internal vibrations.
- Neurological issues: Conditions like peripheral neuropathy, multiple sclerosis, or Parkinson's disease can cause muscle weakness, numbness, and vibrations.
- Hormonal imbalances: Thyroid disorders, adrenal insufficiency, or hormonal changes can cause muscle weakness, fatigue, and other symptoms.
- Medication side effects: Certain medications, such as those used to treat depression, anxiety, or high blood pressure, can cause muscle weakness, numbness, and vibrations.
General Advice:
-
Consult a doctor: Schedule an appointment with your primary care physician or a specialist (e.g., neurologist, endocrinologist) to discuss your symptoms.
-
Blood tests: Get blood tests to check for vitamin deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, and other potential underlying conditions.
-
Neurological examination: A doctor may perform a neurological examination to assess your muscle strength, reflexes, and sensation.
-
Medication review: Inform your doctor about any medications you're taking, as they may be contributing to your symptoms.
-
Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water to help your body function properly.
-
Rest: Get plenty of rest to help your body recover.

View allI have this weird sensation of water in my head and constant tightness, along with sensory OCD. I've tried every type of medication SSRIs, SNRIs, tricyclics, even antipsychotics but nothing has helped. Is there anything else I can try, like surgery or electric therapy? And is this condition even curable?
Water sensation and OCD with med failure may benefit from advanced options like Deep Brain Stimulation or rTMS—consult neurologist or neuropsychiatrist.

I'm experiencing some stiffness in my lower back and there's pain that's running through my right leg. Occasionally, my right leg even feels numb. There are also weird sensations in my lower back.

That could be Lumbago, maintain proper posture and get physiotherapy done, avoid lifting heavy weights take adequate rest
