I wake up in the middle of the night with my heart beating hard and fast... it makes it very difficult to go back to sleep... i am not feeling anxious... what can it be?

Primary care checkup: The altered heart rhythm could have various causes. A primary care doctor will talk to you about your symptoms, feel your pulse, and listen to your heart, run an EKG, and check your blood pressure. You will need to get a blood test to look at complete blood counts and thyroid studies.
