Hello!
Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!
Your symptoms could be related to a sleep disorderr (
nightmares), probably related to the increased stress which you have been going through.
Anyway, if the problem persists, I would recommend consulting with your doctor for a physical exam and some tests:
- an ambulatory 24-48 hours ECG monitoring to examine your heart rhythm trends through a longer period and exclude possible arrythmia
-
complete blood count for anemia
-
thyroid hormone levels for thyroid dysfunction
- blood electrolytes for possible imbalance.
If all the above tests result normal, you should consider
anxiety as the main cause of your troubles.
In such situation Yoga and
meditation would help improve your situation.
I would also advise you to avoid caffeine intake.
Hope to have been helpful!
Wishing all the best,
Dr. Iliri
