some times as im abaout to fall asleep i get wierd rushes and really chest pain. then when i sit up it goes away so i think hmm ok ill try go back to sleep for it only to happen again.

Along side that i get thumping head aches and wierd squeaking in my years that i can only assume is from the blood flow to the head. its really frustrating.

i suffer with costocondritus at the moment but im not sure its linked to that.

i feel like im about to have a heart attack and then when i sit up i feel fine again.

any ideas as im starting to loose my mind over it.

thanks

    My heart feels like it starts beating harder and flutters more when i lay down.

    It causes rushes that last a second or two sometimes.

    If i get up it eases off. At first my chest would tighten and twice i was going to hospital in a panic but i didn't. I'm getting used to it now.

    I'm having anxiety from mild to moderate for most of the day atm but yeah it's worse when I'm in bed.

    There's some medical explanation I'm sure why laying down makes it worse but it sounds like anxiety to me.
