This sounds like a classic example of a BP Spike ( blood pressure spike ) The racing heart beat goe’s along with this. You being nervous over it and the heart races more.. You probably have high blood pressure and its on occasion spiking and going even higher.. This is your call to go see a doctor.. You need to see a doctor and get on meds or next time it happens go to the ER and they will tell you whats up..

Doesn’t sound like sleep apnea. Sounds more like a nightmare, or sleep terrors.

Ask the home care company if they can put a low pressure alarm on it. When you take it off you will loose pressure.

Before even knowing my husband had sleep apnea he very odd/strange dreams as if he was a Indian or grizzly bear.After finding out about the sleep Apnea and getting the machine to help him breath at night,he does not have those dreams anymore. Has anyone had similar dreams like that and we were wondering why this happens is it lack of breathing air at night?
