Hello,

i am 32 female and not sure how to explain this in the right words but while sitting in my bed ( which i do all day) as i cant sit on a chair. I feel like my body goes left right fast. just once sometimes after 1 hour sometimes after 5 min. You know when someone shakes you back and forth same feeling faster and once.

what is this? why is it happening?

oh and sometime it feels like an earthquake. few weeks ago an actual earth quake happened with a 4. smtg it felt the same, i couldnt tell the diff until i saw the chandelier moving

thank you.

    Hi chunli can I ask why you are sitting in bed all day, are you disabled

    I have what I call brain zaps, I suffer with vertigo and I can be perfectly still and it feels like as you say someone has given you a fast shake, I have been checked and nothing untoward so its my crystal in the ears and I do daily exercises when it kicks off

    Is it possible you are nodding off when it happens

    hello, thank you for you reply, i suspected brains zaps, also just like right now i felt like my whole body and head having like goosbombs also fast one also, as if traveling through. I am not disabled, i just have a problem with my tailbone. sitting on a chair for a very short time will get it inflamed and tooo painful. It would take weeks to get back to my normal state because of it. i work as a web developer from home so yea...

    when i told my doctor i feel like i have brain zaps and like electricity passing through, he made me an mri for the head. everything was normal.

    all this happened after i preformed a tongue surgery. i had a herma ( something something ) its rare to get it on the tongue. they had to open my mouth so wide to reach the spot. ofc i was on general anasthesia

    it was at the back of my tongue. i told my doctor something wrong with my ears even before the surgery felt like popping pressure.

    after the surgery if i am not mistake i started feeling this. i dont know how to explain it right, its like electricity or ur body feels cold wave suddenly or more like a shiver passing through.

    it only lasts for a second. he checked my ear with that thing they insert with light. he said everything is fine.

    4-5 years ago i had vertigo for 1 week after a plane ride. that was it. I travelled many times after, no vertigo.

    and deff not nodding off.
