Hi I'm a 19 yr old female and I've had a soft lump on my stomach for about four years now. It is very visible and it can hurt sometimes, but only occasionally. I do get intense stomach pains about twice a month, but now they are getting worse and more frequent. I've had the pains about as long as Ive had the lump. I know I shouldn't worry, but I'm a worry-wart :). I also feel like I'm going to vomit but it never comes all the way up. And when my doctor checked me out he couldn't find anything but after he poked and prodded my lump hurt very badly and I felt very nauseous. also I can see my aorta pulsing when I'm sitting or standing. It's a very pronounced pulse. The doctor can't figure out what's wrong with me, he's just my on-campus doctor. I do not have insurance. Any ideas??
