A member asked:

Is it normal to wake up in the morning with a rapid heartbeat?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sometimes: We are very active during sleep-dreams and nightmares can be vivid and provoke rapid hb. If your heart quickly returns to normal after awakening, it's likely normal but if you're not sure, have your doctor give you a 24 hour (holter) recorder and let's see what is actually happening when you awaken.
