I've had sleep paralysis, but never with any pressure on my chest.  On
the other hand, I tend to sleep on my side.  Most of the time I just
have an intense sense of fear and forboding and can't reach the lamp to
check for ghosties.  Only once did I dream of a woman (or for that
matter any other substatial being) and that was the one from the Lone
Gunman after the first episode.  However, that was more like a dream
with the paralysis as a side effect.

Oh, *that* kind of sensation!  No, unfortunatly  I can't even get anyone
to do that for money.  :)
