Is Fast Heart Beats A Symptom Of Stress?
Sometimes when I wakeup my heart beats fast and I cant go back to sleep . Could this be because im stress? I have a sinus problem and im constantly spitting, so sometimes its hard for me to breath and I have to drink some water but if my sinus is not bothering me that much, it also happens.

HI
Thanks for using healthcare magic
Some time stress leads to anxiety symptoms in form of palpitation, chest pain or tingling sensation etc. In that case, you need low dose antidepressant or benzodiazepine that would decrease anxiety. You can also try relaxation exercise. You can consult a psychiatrist for further management.
