That belly buzzing sounds really unsettling! Those vibrating sensations in the abdomen are a form of internal tremors, which are fairly common with MS — nearly 36% of people with MS report experiencing them.
Pregabalin is one option that doctors sometimes consider for managing internal tremors, particularly because it targets nerve-related sensations. However, it's not specifically FDA-approved for MS tremors, so its use depends on your individual situation. Before jumping to medication, there are some gentler approaches worth trying:
- Stress reduction — yoga, exercise, or therapy
- Better sleep hygiene — going to bed at the same time each night
- Pacing yourself — many MyMSTeam members notice symptoms worsen when overdoing it
One MyMSTeam member shared, *"Much better sleep — vibrations seem to have stopped!"*
If these strategies aren't enough, talk to your neurologist about whether pregabalin is appropriate for you, weighing the benefits against potential side effects.
