What Causes Stomach To Do Heavy Beating?

Posted on Tue, 7 Oct 2014

Question: hi. I noticed my stomach has been beating up and down, I am not pregnant as I did get off my period a few days ago but this has been going on for a while now. and it is mostly in the same area above my belly button. I have gained around 8 pounds in August due to eating bad, I went on vacation and then once I came home I been visiting family in the hospital so I haven't been eating at home. I just do not know why my stomach is beating up and down and it is kind of bothering me because my stomach never did that before. I went for an ultrasound in XXXXXXX when I was having stomach problems and that showed nothing wrong. I am also 5'1 1/2 and I weigh around 144lbs now but I used to weigh around 136/137 and that was back in July

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for your query. I can understand your concerns.

I think it is your heart pounding which is getting transmitted to your stomach. .

Can you tell me exact place where it beating ?

Does it beat continuously and matches your pulse beats?

Also do you have any other symptoms like headache, fainting etc?

Feel free to consult me directly

Hi. Thank you for your reply. The beating is above my belly button. My only symptom is lower back pain and I been having diarrhea but that is it. My beating seems to match my pulse beats.

Dear XXXX,

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXX,

I think you need a more thorough scan.

An echocardiography which includes your abdominal aorta is better to see some mass.

It sounds more like an aneurysm.

Do follow up with the report.
