I've been noticing something strange with my stomach lately. It moves up and down kind of like a heartbeat but not the usual rhythm you get from breathing. After I eat, it feels like it's more intense, almost like some veins are gathering and feel heavy. This movement continues all day, usually at a normal pace. At first, I thought it was my actual heartbeat, but even when my pulse is 72 bpm, the movement doesn't stop. I looked it up online, and it mentioned something about an abdominal aortic aneurysm. Could that be what I'm experiencing?
