weird pulse??

by prgmvars, Sep 02, 2007 09:52PM
i am 16 years old and i notice a very weird pulse that seems to be on my aorta.  It is right under my sternum and right above my abdominal.  Ive browsed other topics concerning stomach pulses but everyone says that their actual stomach has a pule,  my pulse is right above my abdominals not on it.  It is a strong pulse as strong as the one on my left breast.  I can feel it and i can definitely see it.  I want to add that i am extremely skinny and that i ve been getting chest pains under my left breast for a few weeks now.  Ive been to a cardiologist and have done an ekg(normal) and still awaiting other tests. doctor also mentioned i had a bit of  a heart murmur which she noticed when listening to my heart beat wiht a stethoscope.  I am extremely worried however that the pulse is causing my chest pains and that it is some kind of aortic aneurysm?
