Swollen Abdomen, Pulsates From Time To Time, Running Out Of Breath. What To Do ?

For about 7 months I have had a swollen abdominal, no pain just quite tight and hard when you press it and looks swollen. It also pulsates from time to time when I am laying down which can be quite annoying when i am trying to sleep. I have also noticed I am running out of breath quite easily and in one instance I woke up and felt sick.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM,
From your history it seems that you require evaluation of your case.
There are many causes which can give rise to swollen abdomen.
1,Absolute constipation.
2,excess deposition of fat on abdomen.
3,Ascitis.
4, Enlargement of liver, spleen.
So consult Gastroenterologist and get examines physically and with ultra sound, MRI.etc.
Ok and bye.
