Weird buzzing feeling left side of my chest under breast.

Hey guys,

For the last couple of months I have been experiencing a weird symptom.  When I lay down sometimes I get this weird vibrating feeling on the left side of my chest it’s in the are under my breast. It last one second there’s no pain but it does wake me up from my sleep, I get scared about it because I don’t know if it’s my heart but it doesn’t feel like a palpitation it’s more like a buzzing feeling. Also it only happens as I’m falling asleep.

Does anyone have this, 

I suggest you speak to a doctor about this. It doesn't sound dangerous at all, but just to make sure, speak with a professional. Good luck and take care. x

Does it happen as you breathe?  I had this as a child and the doctors never could figure it out.  About once a year I still get it.  For myself, it always did it just for a split second on an inhale.  Sometimes a few inhales in a row as a kid.  Always very hard to catch as an adult because it never would do it when I was expecting it.  Anyways started when I was 5 and I am now in my mid 40's.  I think it may have something to do with phlegm build up or perhaps a narrow passage in my lung.  It is always in the same spot and feels like bubbles.  Had soooo many tests over the years nothing was ever found.  See a doctor about it. if they can't find anything don't worry about it.

Hi Laura, 

I've been feeling that for about a week now.  I'm freaking out!  I'm tempted to go to the ER.  Did you find anything out about those feelings?

Please let me know!!!!

I am experiencing this vibrating buzzing feeling constantly in my left breast. Should I be concerned? Is there any way of making it stop? Please share any information. Thank you.

Hi Laura. I have the same buzzing on left of chest,.not in my chest but sort of, In my breast, pec, muscle. I'm a 64 yr old man, fairly fit and active. No pain or other problems. Had this for about 6 months and ,recently, it's happening several times each hour. Doc has no ideas. Had ecg, blood tests, heart monitor for 24 hrs, and I'm absolutely fit. Seems like hundreds of people get this but no good diagnosis. I think it might be a spinal glitch which sets up vibration in an intercostal muscle but what do I know!!! It is worrying though and I'd like stop it happening.

 

i think that it is indeed generated from the spine. I have been experiencing this ever since i had a cervical injection last week . I have the same type of buzzing down one of my legs after lumbar fusions.

I have exact same thing .hate it

omg! I just started feeling this same buzzing under my left breast 3 days ago. no pain tho just buzzing and it lasts about 3 to 5 seconds and it stops does it again and stops. it keeps doing this off and on most of the day but it sometimes wont do it for hours then all of a sudden their it is. what is it? yes! I'm starting to freak out. but it wont do it while I'm sleeping. weird and so scary.

I've just started with this tonight, did you find out what it was?

Hello from Canada. This popped up in a Google search a few days ago and it caught my attention because I had the same thing, many years ago, and I've never known why. In my case it happened mostly while I was at work. I never told my doctor because I knew he would never believe me. I wasn't sure I believed it myself, it was just too weird, and I am surprised to see that other people have experienced the same thing.

My best, unqualified guess is that it has something to do with the electrical system in the heart. I have something similar happening right now, a vibration or shaky feeling that begins in my back, in the area around my heart and sort of travels down to my legs. I do have some heart problems, but I can't tell if it's related. It seems to occur on it's own, separate from the palpitations and arrhythmias.

Anyway, my advice to anyone else who reads this would be don't take any chances. Do not assume that it is nothing to worry about just because you don't have chest pain. There are a lot of heart conditions that don't cause pain or any other severe symptoms. Most of them are harmless, some of them are not. So if you think it might be your heart, get it checked.

This is happening to me also. Sometimes it wakes me up. I've been trying to "catch" it happening with my Apple watch, but my doctor says everything looks normal. It feels like a vibrating cell phone in my chest. it will happen on and off for a few seconds for a day or so. I had a heart monitor for 30 days and it not happen one time. I think my doctor thinks I'm crazy. I don't know how it could be stress if it happens sometimes while I am sleeping.

Hi Canuky72... I've just joined today and noticed your post.

You mentioned about "vibration or shaky feeling that begins in my back, in the area around my heart and sort of travels down to my legs. "

Did you get to the bottom of this as I seem to suffering from the same thing and having numerous tests but not finding a solution or diagnosis...

I am a male 43 years of age. I also have these chest vibrations. It affects me the most at bedtime and they happen right when I'm just about to fall asleep. It doesn't allow me to sleep and I'm worried now of what this could be. I never had any issues with sleeping. People keep saying anxiety but honestly, if it wasn't for this vibration I would be sleeping like a baby. The anxiety comes from the fact that it doesn't allow me to sleep. I've tried melatonin, magnesium, magnesium calm drinks. and nothing seems to work. Someone please help. I haven't slept well and I feel like no one has an answer to what this could be.

I am a 67 y/o female i have noticed this in the past. It has started again this week. I keep thinking it is my cell phone. Today it is very frequent

i am a 42 yr old male i have the same feeling of vibration on my left chest it freaks me out i have been dealing with anxiety diorder for over a year now and stopped taking anxiety medication for like 1 month and 2 weeks thats when i started felling this vibrating on my chest i stopped taking them cause of really bad side effects and honestly don't know if all of this is tide up to it i just want to feel normal again if any one could shed some light to this matter will greatly be appreciated

this happens me all the time when I lie down when I inhale deeply or when I wake up, I thought I was a heart attack, then I got a chest xray and an echo done and ecg.and heart monitor all turned out OK, then my arms went numb thy sent me.to neurologist they said its anxiety but the vibration in chest won't go away its so odd

Hi, I've got the same issue, is started 1 year ago after the first lockdown. I had blood test and ECG and it was all fine, still I've got this vibration. I feel it under my breast, on the left side no pain but just strange 🤔 My gp said its anxiety but believe me if I tried everything, yoga, meditation, bed time teas, it happens during the day tought not in the night time. And also if I'm busy doing something it doesn't happen... Strange. If you have any answers I think you could help lots of people, I'm a bit more relaxed to see that there's other people with this issue.

I am 43-year-old woman. This 'phantom phone vibration' has been happening in my right chest for the past two weeks (so opposite my heart). I don't even know how to describe it to my doctor aside from that and would love to know what it is. happens for a few seconds at a time throughout the day but can stop for hours at a time

I have had internal pulsing vibrations many times. It switches locations. Sometimes it's in my chest, my stomach, my arms and now it's around my pelvis on the left side only. It's like a ringing telephone. It vibrates for 1 sec, stops for 6 sec, vibrates for 1 sec, stops for 6 sec; over and over all day long. It happened a lot when I would wake up in the morning but now it is happening all day. I have no idea what it is. It has to be an indication of SOMETHING! Planning to see a functional doctor someday soon.
