Panic attacks and nightmares

For the past two nights I think I've been experiencing panic/anxiety attacks, though I'm not sure. I've been having nightmares almost every night and I think that's the cause of these panic/anxiety attacks but I've been having nightmares more often for a while now. I don't know what's causing these nightmares, or how to reduce/get rid of them. Usually, I sleep well and at the same time each night but these nightmares have been causing me to wake up multiple times, and sleep in for longer/go to bed later as I'm not getting good quality sleep. I'm wondering if my recent diagnosis has anything to do with it, maybe subconsciously. Can someone let me know if they experienced something similar? It might not be related at all - I thought last night was a one off but it happened again tonight and I'm a bit unsettled.
