Hello, I have had something like this twice. When I did my research it said it could be sleep paralysis. That is the only thing that made sense to me. Look it up.
Hi thanks for your reply I did look up sleep paralysis. .was your experience similar with palps. .The tremors I get every morning so I'm wondering if I have night stress when sleeping...sucks 😐
Hey, yes I do get palpitations but I thought they were caused by me stressing over it. You need to drink some tea before bed and get someone to massage you back and neck, or take a long warm bath, so your body can relax before going to sleep. That will help you relieve some of the stress build up and relax your muscles.
Mornings are rough because your cortisol levels are highest then...this may be why you're shaking. I have had my heart checked out so many times because anxiety makes it do crazy things. I wake up in the middle of the night with what feels like a gasp for air. It stinks, but will get better with time.
