It's so weird and been going on about 18 months. I am tired (at night) drop of happily to sleep then 5-10 minutes later wake up, heart racing and feeling awful! Takes about 10 minutes to relax and go back to sleep or I read for a bit. It never happens the second time I fall asleep. Less likely to happen if I feel cool in bed but not always. No other symptoms.
My heart is healthy, had ECGs for other reasons, I am not depressed or anxious. Peri menopausal but been like that 5 years (early onset). Only take thyroxine but been on it years and have regular blood tests which are fine. Nothing else I can think off.
I think I must be the only person in the world with this, but most nights? . Give me a break! Not seeing GP as it's so trivial and what could they do?
Has anybody else got this? What is it? Am I alone?

Waking up after a few minutes, heart racing and a feeling of DOOM!
