What Causes Fluttering Under The Sternum?
I am 44 yrs old and I woke up saturday morning and felt queasy....after about a half hour I threw up. Ever since then I have been getting these fluttering movements under my sternum. I got my tubes tied 19 years ago but the only time this has happened is when I am pregnant. What could it be...?
