I'm currently on a rabies vaccine regimen and I've taken three doses with one more to go. Lately, I've been dealing with a lot of anxiety and I haven't slept in two days. Is it safe for me to take sleeping pills?

There is no direct interaction between the rabies vaccination regimen and commonly prescribed sleeping pills. However, do not take any kind of sedative medication without consulting a certified physician.

I've been feeling my pulse all over my body, even when I touch my fingers, it's like I can feel it everywhere. Even when I'm lying down to sleep, I notice this pulsing in my head. On top of that, I keep having these sudden involuntary muscle jerks, they happen all over, including my head, hands, and legs, even when I'm trying to sleep. I have a lot of anxiety, and I end up worrying too much about my health. I often find myself searching online and getting even more anxious after reading things. Can you tell me if these symptoms might be related to anxiety, or is there something else I should be concerned about? I've already had an ECG done, and that came back normal.
