Stomach Pain HELP

So for the past month, my stomach has been pulsing with my heartbeat whenever I lay down. Now I’ve recently lost 20 pounds, (191 to 171 lbs) and I’m 5’10” so I’m relatively skinny now. But I’ve had a pain just to the upper right of my navel between my abdomen muscle line on the right side that kills whenever I touch it or strain.

Now I’m prescribed alprazolam 0.5 mg and usually I take this at like 9 or 10 PM. I took it at 5 PM today, immediately passed out, and when I woke up there wasn’t any pain in my abdomen. I’m super scared something ruptured and I’m internally bleeding/in shock or something, and my parents are no help here. I never sleep, like ever, and when I do I’m doubled over in stomach pain. So what do I do, is this no pain normal? I don’t know what to do, and it’s a lot.

I’m going through the same issue with pulse in stomach. I don’t have much advice on the pain;( did you bring up the issues to your doctor?

I had this happen before, ended up being that I burnt my stomach. This happened four years ago. Eventually the pulsating goes away. Try acid reflux medication like Tums or Pepto, they might help. The more you panic the more acid produces in your stomach and makes your burns worse. Mine happened from eating two mangoes..... and guess what! I’m a terrible patient and didn’t do what my doctor said so 4 years later I have stomach pains every day! Woohooo. But I’m not dead. If you were internally bleeding you would know and you’d be rushed to the ER immediately probably into surgery.
