Something Off Topic not sure

I've had this problem for a long time and I always thought it was normal and maybe it is. But it bothers my husband for some reason. I have a really strong heartbeat near my belly button. If you put something on it, it will beat so hard it will knock something off. And it's worse when I don't feel well or if I over exert myself. I looked it up on the Internet and came across 3 things.
1. It's normal because there's a main artery there.
2. That its a abdominal aortic aneurism.
3. It's a symptom of fybromyalgia.

So I'm not sure. I emailed my doctor and they said to come in a be seen because it could be a couple of things and I may need to see a specialist.

My husband says no it's always been there don't worry about it. But I've checked my husband and kids and you can't feel a pulse in their belly.

Does anyone else have this?

Thanks. And I'm sorry to hear that. My family wasn't really close so I don't really know what runs in my family except cancer and diabetes. As soon as I feel bettering gonna make an appt. I don't think it's the aneurism because I've seen it before. So I've had it going on a long time. I would think if it was that then it would have ruptured by now or I don't know if you can have it for a long time. It's been going crazy lately because the other day I rode my bike for a couple miles and walked my dogs for about an hour. But when I started to ride my bike my stomach started thumping and I got really nauseated. That night I came down with I think strep throat. I've been a mess lately. Being new to fybro and I haven't learned my limits, me wanting to over do everything plus getting sick doesn't help.

I was just curious if anyone knew about this. It's really odd to me.

Thank you for your concern. I do plan on contacting my doctor for next week for that. And to see if there is anything else I may be able to take for my fibro. I couldn't deal with the side effects of my last medication.

Like I said. I was just curious if anyone had experience with this. And bfwm had a horrible experience. I hope I didn't hurt him/her by writing this.

Thanks. Well I know how it is talking about a lost loved one. I lost my mom 3 years ago suddenly. She had health problems but I didn't think she was going to suddenly be gone. She was my best friend. She was the only person who understood me and dealt with me no matter how ridiculous I sounded. So when people have similar stories like my mom I will talk to them with my experience and then usually cry as soon as nobody's looking. She died from COPD and a heart problem. She had 2 major surgeries that didnt go well her last two years but she had just recovered and graduated college and was looking for work. She had a CPAP machine but they took it away because she didnt have enough hours on it. The week they took it away she passed. The day after my sons 5th birthday. A couple of days after she passed the doctor called to set up her appt for the sleep study so she could get the machine back. I was so angry.

Yeah I will. I can feel it right now but it looks like a wild baby if I'm stressed, not feeling well or if I exercise too much. I need to go in anyway because I need my medications re checked. I didn't like that nortriptyline. They have to have other options or maybe advice on natural stuff. I haven't been in much pain lately though. I think the flexeril helps me some. But like I had a flare or something last over a month and I was miserable. I don't like having to take medication everyday, I'm not consistent enough. I just like something that can pull me out of a slump. I thought I was getting another attack. My body was hurting real bad but then I got a sore throat, and was really nauseated for 3 days. Then I woke up yesterday at 4 and my uvula was gigantic and my throat didnt hurt. But my uvula was making me gag all day. I also have a fear of vomit/vomiting so I was having horrible anxiety all week. So I wake up today and everything still feels off, but I think it turned into a cold now. Cleaned all day because I've been sick and nobody has done anything. So I had to do a lot today. So I'm guessing I won't be able to move tomorrow or for the next couple of days. That always happens. I clean and then I pay for it after. I'm 31 but most days I feel 81.

I think I'd go looking for a second opinion on that. To go by your doctor's logic, only overweight people could have a heart/veinous problem? I don't know, that doesn't do it for me.

I think that I would get a second opinion and possibly let that be from a cardiologist.

I get like that if I am the least bit dehydrated or under the weather. I have a skipping heartbeat at times and they found out I have mitral valve prolapse. All very mild according to the cardiologist, but I do take a medication for the flutters that I have.

Don't let the dr. make you feel crazy or let him just blow you off. At the very least, you need to have an EKG just to make sure things are ok with your system.
