Question

I was lying down after dinner tonight and started to notice this pulsating feeling in my left upper stomach area, just below the rib cage. I'm taking blood pressure meds, so I'm a bit worried. Is this something I should be concerned about? What might be causing it?

For how long can we rely on the CT coronary angio results? My mom is 65, diabetic, and had one done in February 2020it all looked pretty normal back then, no plaque in the main artery and a calcium score of zero. Her recent ECG also came back normal and she's not having any symptoms, but we've found that she has mild pulmonary hypertension with a systolic pressure of 34 mmHg on a 2D echo. She's not taking any blood thinners right now. Do you think we should consider repeating the CT angio?
