Pulse in my abodomen like the heartbeat

Noticed this few weeks ago. Took a pelvic scan which shows I am all perfect. But my abdomen inbetween my chest and my navel pulsates when I lay on my back also feel something like a lump/mass but disappears when I touch it and it's painless. Treating peptic ulcer at the moment. Any help?

Hi,
What other symptoms are present? Can you elaborate on the pulsation that you feel? If this persists, you may need to have this checked by your doctor to rule out serious conditions such as  abdominal aneurysm. It is best that you have this checked by your doctor for proper evaluation. Take care and do keep us posted.
