When you feel your pulse can you feel both beats or just one? like are u supposed to feel that other "boom"?

Subtle: While it is possible to feel the variation in the pulse it is difficult, takes a lot of repetition to master, and may have become a lost art even amongst specialists.

Do you feel both contractions of your heart when you check your pulse? Or just one beat?
For almost one month (started noticing 12/28/22) I have been seeing my pulse in my vision. Its like several small gray/translucent black spots that beat with my heart. I do have anxiety and this started right after recovering from Covid?
How are ones pulse-rate/heart-beat and blood pressure connected?
I have a constant pulse under one eye lower lid, in time with my heart beats for the past two weeks. You can clearly see it pumping. What should I do?
I am taking my pulse with my finger to my wrist. Am I expecting to feel one solid beat or is there a "bump bump" sound usually between heart beats?
