This sensation could be due to a condition called pulsatile tinnitus, where you perceive your heartbeat in your abdomen. Since your ECG is normal, it is less likely to be related to a heart issue. However, it is important to rule out other potential causes. I recommend you consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can try managing stress and anxiety, as they can sometimes exacerbate this sensation.
