A member asked:
What to do if i have a heart problem that is yet to be diagnosed following tests, is it possible my reoccurent sleep paralysis is related to my heart?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Sleep paralysis is a form of narcolepsy and has nothing to do with heart disease. If the brakes in your car squeak, does that mean you have heart disease?
