On a few occasions recently I've had really bad or scary dreams that have woken me up with a terrible feeling of panic and anxiety in my chest. Not painful as such but a breathless feeling that makes it hard to go back to sleep for a while. And then in the morning I've experienced mild chest pain - possibly as a result of being tense in the night?
I've obviously had nightmares before but never experienced physical symptoms such as these. Does it sound like night terrors?
