Had a recent abdomen ct it's good but when iam laying down i c my stomach moving even feeling it when sitting is this pulsation or spasms ? cause?

It's like related to: Your pulse. If you are a relatively thin man, you may very well just be seeing the pulse wave from your heart contractions through your aorta - the biggest blood vessel that runs from your heart all the way down to about your belly button(umbilicus).
