A member asked:
I can see my heart beating while looking at my chest. i am skinny. is this normal? echos and ekg are normal?

Yes, people who are thin can often see their pulse on their chest due to less tissue under the skin. If you have normal EKG and Echo, then this is typically not worrisome-especially if your cardiologist agrees. Best of luck to you!
