A member asked:

Lately i can feel my heart pulsing in my chest. it's not beating faster, but feels like it's beating harder. i'm 35. resting heart rate is 52.

"Cardiac awareness": If there is no irregularity to the heart beat, neither is it racing, then you are probably experiencing a well-recognized yet poorly understood phenomenon called "cardiac awareness". This can be triggered by some subconscious alarm over an anxiety provoking medical condition in another loved one or acquaintance or some media exposure to a heart related event. But often no trigger can be identified
