What Causes Fluttering Sensation Below The Ribcage?

For the past month or two I have had a strange sensation on my left side, below my rib cage. It almost feels like when I was pregnant and the baby would move. It is a slightly fluttery feeling. It comes and goes. I feel it most often after eating and in the evening. It doesn t hurt, but is bothersome.

Hello

As you explain the situation this might be related to the gases in your intestine
I would recommend you to do an abdominal ultrasound to evaluate it. However the first step is to regulate the diet with a lot of fibres and water and also try to walk.
