A member asked:

Notice once and a while feeling heartbeat in stomach. i'm 31, 225, 5'11". just felt it again while lying on stomach. normal? last checked bp 124/82.

Maybe normal...: ...but we can't rule out aneurysm without an imaging study. While we have your attention, your current height and weight corresponds to a body mass index of 31 (obese is >30) -- please consider weight reduction as appropriate.
