A member asked:
What is a pulse wave velocity heart test used for?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: A little high is not a big deal if you have no other risk factors, and can probably be taken care of with increased activity and a better diet. If you are diabetic, already have coronary disease, or a history of premature coronary artery disease in your family - medication may be needed.

For years now, I've had what I can only describe as a pulse that goes through my head. When I say pulse, I don't mean like heart rate, but like a wave that goes through my head. It only happens once or twice at a time, and is monthly. What is it?
Have had many heart tests. No significant findings. Stong pulse in abdomen, it will actually move me in bed. How can I stop this?
