What Causes Fluttering Feeling In Abdomen?

So my mom has been complaining about a fluttery feeling in her abdomen right under the breast area. Her Pulse rate is 72, resp. 22, and when she gets this feeling her pulse seems to slow down. She has been complaining of this for a week, and has had some anxiety, that could be making it worse... any idea what's wrong??

hi and welcome to hcm.
it can be caused by anxiety by itself but also some abdoinal colcis caused by gallbalder,stomach or small bowel disorders could cause this as well. She needs to do more detailed gastroenterologic work up.
Wish you good health. Regards
