A member asked:
I can feel my heart beat in my stomach, is it possibly an abdominal aortic aneurysm?

UNLIKELY: At thirty-five it is unlikely you have developed an aaa, but it's not totally impossible. You could have some degree of high blood pressure, which perhaps makes your pulsations more noticeable. If you are very thin, it's not that unusual to notice your aortic pulsations. My advice...Discuss this with your doctor. Good luck.

Heartbeat in belly : Feeling a heart beat in your stomach could represent an abdominal aortic aneurysm. The normal aortic pulsation can be felt in most skinny people. It would be unusual to have an aortic aneurysm at your age. An ultrasound can be arranged by your doctor to answer the question, if need be.
