What Causes Shaking In Body While Sleeping And Having Dilated Cardiomyopathy?

I am 51 , 104 kilos, and 179cm. I have Dilated Cardiomyopathy since I was diagnosed november 2008 and I have an implant since last year may. But recently when I was sleeping a friend realised that was shaking the whole body for about a minute! He called my name & I just mumbled! What could that be?

abnormally shaking of body points to epileptic fit .you must see your neurologist soon ...as he may run a test to exact cause ...but if you are having some tiredness and breathing problem it may be some cardiac cause ...please ask your friend to explain what he saw that day as your doctor should be given complete description of episode he has seen .
