A member asked:
Had dream heart stopped, couldnt breath or move. woke up feeling that way in reality couldnt move for a couple seconds, middle of night sleep apnea?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Apnea or narcolepsy: Not being able to breathe of course is a symptom of apnea - either obstructive or central. Not being able to move is symptomatic of sleep paralysis. Many have episodes during their life but if recurrent signal narcolepsy.. Cataplexy (involuntary muscle weakness with intense emotion), hallucinations (visual, auditory, or olfactory) on awakening or falling asleep, and nap attacks fulfill criteria
