I have no idea what's going on at all.
I've had these issues at night for quite some time now but they've gotten so much worse.
I keep going to bed at night then I'll breathe normally, slowly drift to sleep then suddenly desperately breathe in for some oxygen. It'll be a very rapid inhalation that jolts me to being very awake. Normally it's followed by a feeling of vibrating all over my body, and quite often my heart will enter an abnormal rhythm for a little while.
Then I've been having issues with suddenly becoming rapidly awake after 1 and a half, 4 and a half, whatever hours, jolting upright and desperately inhaling, whilst feeling extremely anxious, as my heart rate climbs to something ridiculous (120-130). I also found that during any of these episodes, my blood pressure goes up to 130 over 70 (it's normally 105 over 70).
So this morning I was extremely scared and decided to see how I often I breathe, to see if I was breathing way too fast, or too slow, or whatever. It turns out I breathe between 4-6 times a minute, which is completely slow as hell. I don't know what to do.
