[|Human|] After being asleep for a couple of hours, my heart started beating very fast. I could hear my heart beating in my ears. I was paralyzed. I tried to wake up my boyfriend, but couldn t move or make a sound. i managed to get movement in my fingers and tried to poke him, but to no avail (he s a very heavy sleeper). I finally got my eyes opened, and I lay awake for a little while and fell back asleep when i started to feel better. This is the second time that it s happened in a couple of months. what s wrong with me?
[|AI|]  Hello, Symptoms seem to be related to a sleep disorder, possible sleep paralysis or a nightmare. For this reason, I would recommend consulting with a neurologist and performing a polysomnogram.  Other tests to consider would be thyroid hormone levels for thyroid gland dysfunction, cardiac ultrasound and an ambulatory 24-48 hours ECG monitoring for cardiac arrhythmia. You should discuss with your doctor on the above tests.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Chat Doctor.
