Dear user
Pulsations in abdomen near umbilicus is the normal pulsating aorta.. In lean and thin persons it is more prominent in pulsation than obese persons in whom it is not felt due to fats. As you say you feel tired and dizzy, it may be due to low hemoglobin level in blood. So you are advised to undergo Full Blood Count test. And start healthy and balanced diet containing iron. And don't touch your belly for feeling the normal pulsating aorta as it will make you more anxious.
thanx for asking.
