Thanks for your query. This is due to hyper movement of GIT.
You are advised the following
•     Domperidone 10 mg three times daily
•     Reduce your diet to half
•     Avoid all fatty foods
•     Cut down all protein foods to half
•     Avoid spicy and citrus foods.
•     Don’t take stomach full rather you can take frequent meal to avoid bloating
If you don’t get relief,plz let me know on pakheim@gmail.com pakheim@yahoo.com
Hoping that you will get benefit from my advice.
My prayers are with you.
Thanks and best regards.

Hi, Thanks for using HCM.

Feeling pulsation in upper abdomen could be due to aortic aneurysm or enlarged ventricles of heart, or some swelling in abdomen pressing on aorta.
Get USG abdomen done for any intra abdominal mass, and aortic dilatation.
Get ECHO done for your cardiac evaluation.

Consult your doctor for examination and management.
Hope I answered your question. Feel free to ask me if you have any further queries.
Wish you good health. Take
care.

Regards
Dr. Vidya
