Waking up with heart palpitations
I took a nap this afternoon. I woke up with heart racing and dizziness . I felt like passing out . Is it normal ? I'm taking antidepressants from past 5 months. I'm always worried about heart beat. I've undergone ECG, echo n tmt multiple times, always it shows normal. Sometimes I feel strong heartbeats.
