I've had night terrors on and off over the years,but just recently it's been getting worse and I am really frightened. Night before last, I was sleeping on my side, I could swear I woke up, but could ABSOLUTELY not move if I tried, plus my breathing was difficult..I feel like I have a combination of sleep paralysis, night terrors and a form of sleep apnea. I have fibromyalgia and the RLS that goes with it, my doctor has me on Klonopin and Trazadone which has been working wonderfully and then "Wham", this started happening again. Tonight I either dreamed or was trying to get up and couldn't ..the doc said the trazadone can produce intense dreams, but I dunno, why would this happen 2 days and then I'm fine for months. IT IS SO FRIGHTENING !!! makes me afraid to try and go back to sleep. O and another thing...when this starts to happen, I can feel my head starts to "buzz" for lack of a better word, and I feel like I'm sinking down and i can't breathe..have also noticed in the a.m. my head kinda buzzes for awhile till I get going with my day...DOES ANYONE OUT THERE KNOW WHAT OR WHY THIS IS HAPPENING??? H E L P !
