Will Anxiety Cause Heart Pounding Fast?

i suffer from anxiety and panic disorder. For the first time ever, I woke up in the middle of the night with my heart pounding fast and hard. I sat up and took deep slow breaths and it went away. This has made me nervous. I am healthy other than my anxiety. Is this related to anxiety or could it be something else?
I am a 30 year old female.
