Perhaps someone can help me with this - I know there are many posts here about heart issues and SADS, but please bear with me.
For 2 of the past nights out of 3, I have had a strange sensation during the night, I am unsure if I am dreaming or awake at the time but have felt the sensation of having a fast, strong heartbeat that seems to wither at every 4th beat. It is very vivid and extremely frightening.
I feel as though I am in a state of semi-consciousness when I have this sensation, as I am able to remember it and it feels extremely vivid at the time. The particularly strange thing is, I know that were I to be awake at the time of feeling this, I would undoubtedly panic and wake up very quickly, however, I felt weirdly comfortable at the time and "fell back asleep" or drifted out of consciousness again.
These symptoms have baffled me, and are of a strong heartbeat and consistent arrhythmia. Naturally I am very worried about it, and would really be curious as to whether anybody else has a similar experience to this which they could share.
Many thanks,
Ben
