Hi everyone! I'm usually over on the lyme disease forums..but thought mabye someone on here would be able to help me out... the last two nights ive been woken up from a dead sleep (at the exact same time). I was sleeping on my stomach, and had this squeezing sensation over my left chest (it was pretty scary), but as soon as I rolled over onto my back, it was gone and i fell back asleep.... any idea what this is or what causes it?

Hi blueskyfvr, I havent ever heard of this but that doesnt mean it couldnt be something.  Here is a link from the American Heart Association which you can read if you wish.  It is a really good site. http://www.americanheart.org/presenter.jhtml?identifier=3053

I would keep track of these attacks or spells and do let your doctor know next time you see them or should they become more frequent or bothersome make an appointment.

Take care
