What Caused Sudden Rapid Heartbeat And My Legs Shaking?

One moment I was laying in bed watching a show ad the next I was waking up with a rapid heart beat and my legs shaking... I looked at the clock and a half an hour went by. I don t remember falling asleep. I don t even know if I was asleep. I just remember feeling like I couldn t breathe and my heart was beating fast and my legs shaking.

Hello

Have you ever had these symptoms before?
Have you undergone any investigations?

This could be the symptoms of panic attack or some anxiety.

I think you should visit a physician. Go for ECG to know the cardiac status.

Anyhow, relaxation exercises like deep breathing and meditation will help.

Thanks.
