What Could Cause Sleeplessness?
When I lay down to go to sleep my heart beats to hard and makes it difficult to fall asleep. Sometimes it can take me up to 2 hrs to fall asleep. I don t take any caffeine for 4 hrs before bed and I don t feel anxious. No chest pain it s just very annoying and is causing me to loose sleep please advise!

Hello,
I think you must get an ECG and an X Ray chest. Only after ruling out cardiac illness one can.prescribe anything.
This can be due to cardiac cause or lung problem.
So, please get the above two investigations and then further managment can.be decided.
It dosent seem to be anxiety as you have already ruled it out.
wish you good health
