Can Energy Drink Cause Twitching And Shortness Of Breath?

I drank an energy drink the other day and I had experienced some odd symptoms. A few minutes after I have drunk the drink I began to tic or in other words twitch, this lasted for about an hour in a half. My heart was beating rapidly and it did for at most 10 minutes, I got home and I sat down I was perfectly fine then I started running short of breathe, my heart started beating rapidly again and I went into convulsions. Why did this happen?
