A member asked:

I am consistently not getting enough sleep lately, or sleeping in late, my heart is acting up weird. it feels like my life is flashing through my eyes?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Heart acting weird: You didn't give us much to go on here but if you're not sleeping well then it could make your heart feel a little... Weird, I guess. Especially if you're taking stimulants or energy drinks to keep you up. Sounds like you should talk with your PCP about your sleeping issue.
