A lot of the time through the day I feel like I have to consciously make the effort to breathe, sometimes to the point where I spend the whole day light headed, sore and just manually breathing and unable to do anything else.
Recently I've been feeling like when I'm falling asleep or rested I stop breathing, sometimes I notice it and start again and others I don't notice until I get terrible sensations like I'm going to pass out.
I keep getting it in my sleep, a lot of the time it happens as I just fall asleep or can happen throughout, it's happened up to 5 times in one night.
I jump up, gasping for air and my heart is racing, I feel disoriented and heavy and dizzy like my blood pressure dropped like when you get up fast. It's terrifying me that I might die in my sleep. I am awake now from doing it and I'm scared to go back to sleep. I feel clammy and heavy and swaying and I just generally do not feel right at all but this has happened so many times before and eventually I do sleep and end up sleeping a good few hours.
Can anybody help/relate???
