    Sleep issues

    I guys- just wanted to know if anyone gets this- every night as I'm dozing off I feel like I've stopped breathing and jump out of my skin palpitations shaking- this happens about 8-9 times also through the night sometimes any ideas??

    Yes that happens to me too. Not sure if there is anything to stop it but it is scary.

    I'm so glad its not just me- I was starting to think there was something wrong with me- it really scares me- some nights are worse than others

    I cut out all caffeine from last weekend and it has stopped the perminant palpitations and shakes I had- I do smoke quite heavily

    Do these random palps ever go away? I'm new to them and been very frightened. I'm taking a beta blocker for them.
