A member asked:
I was awakened last night to the sound of my heart beating hard and fast. i have a history of hypertension and am on meds for same but no past cardiac?

Anxiety.: Forceful regular beating heart in the middle of the night suggest that your heart is normal and that you have anxiety. Irregular, weak or very rapid pulse suggest something else. If you can exercise without any symptoms it is unlikely that you have any significant coronary artery or structural heart disease.
