I don t know where to start. I was on antibiotics for a sinus infection and have developed serious sleeping troubles. Every time I start to fall asleep I feel strange sensations like floating, and falling, muscle jolts, tingling in my face, hands and feet. I can t sleep. I have had my blood checked, ECG, EKG...I am scared.
