I have had more stress lately ( new job, move, mother in law passed away) and have had anxiety attacks in the past. This past week I have noticed that when I sit in different positions or even standing I feel my heart beat/ race in my upper abdomen like by my stomach and even in my throat and then it s gone within a few seconds. It s really freaking me out. I m 27 female I m 5 5 and weigh 159. Is this an aortic aneurysm ??
Generally no symptoms. Aortic aneurysms develop or are present for years before they have any clinical manifestation (death can be the first symptom of it). It can be evaluated with a simple, low cost, and no side effect ULTRASOUND of the abdomen.
