What Causes Palpitations Upon Waking Up?
HELLO I was sleeping and woke up to urinate as I arose my heart started to feel like it was beating too fast, I placed my oxipulse on my finger and it shows oxygen saturation point at 99 and PRbpm at 53 what can cause this. It is not the first time this has happened. I have drank a glass of water and taken 1/4 tsp of cayenne pepper in water this has not helped yet.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It may be possibility of atrial flutter or fibrillation or sinus bradycardia or hypertension etc. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Take deep breath and hold. If symptoms not improved please consult your doctor immediately he will examine and treat you accordingly.
