What Causes Rapid Heart Beat And Shaking While Asleep?

what would cause a 29 year old male to have a rapid heartbeat and shaking while he is asleep and he doesn't realize it? He has also had congestion in his nasal passages for many years; year around. He also started sweating profusely at times about a year ago.
