Can sleep paralysis be associated with a heart problem in any way?

I am currently seeing a doctor for possible PVST (Paroxysmal Supraventricle Tachycarida) and it’s wearing out my energy. When I take naps in the afternoon I experience sleep paralysis, and occasionally at night.

They are two different conditions. the PVST involves a rapid beating of the heart due to an affectation of the AV node, which is treatable. Actually, this could provoque the whole opposite effect, such as an anxiety state.
The sleep paralysis is something I know first hand, and I know how it feels, they are two different conditions. That could be a secondary effect of the fatigue your other condition gives you. I get it (the paralysis) when i am really tired too.

you will be OK, just do what the doc says. Wish you the best!
