What causes a pulsating feeling under the left rib cage?
“Pulsating” suggests rhythmic repetition such as cardiac action. If you only feel this while lying on your left side and the “pulsations” coincide with your heartbeat, it may be the apex of the left ventricle against your left rib cage that gives that sensation. Check your pulse and time it with the “pulsations”. If they do exactly coincide, then the sensation is probably cardiac or vascular in origin.Usually, however, this complaint refers to rumbles within the colon or occasionally peristaltic action as a mix of food with small amounts of gas moving through the pylorus of the stomach into the duodenum. Peristaltic action is rhythmic, 2–3 times per minute usually and is usually felt in the pyloric area or colon because of higher pressures that may be generated there.Sounds or sensations that the bowel makes are called borborygmi and are usually described as “growls” or gurgling. Noise in the bowel is only caused by a liquid/air interface such as in the stomach or colon. As small bubbles of gas enter the colon, they rise and coalesce in the transverse colon in the upper abdomen where you may sense it under the left ribs. As the gas moves into the splenic flexure of the colon, the discomfort is felt more to the left and even around to the back—kidney area. “Splenic flexure syndrome”.I suspect this is a benign condition and will subside. If you have problems with gas/bloating/irregular bowels, take a fiber supplement such as a TBSP of metamucil twice a day and see what happens. The first sign of colon dysfunction is due to a failure of moving gas and this is the first thing that recovers when you take a fiber supplement. Hope this helps.

What does benzodiazepine withdrawal feel like?
In my own personal experience, psychosis slowly begins to set in.During my worst benzo withdrawal experience to date, I felt something called Depersonalization , which pretty much strips you of your identity.You know your name, but you forget almost every familiar detail of your life. You have problems with co-ordination. It's very difficult to even walk without feeling as if you are trying to avoid falling off of a cliff with every step.My personal experience w/ Depersonalization - also threw me into what I would best describe as an infantile ego like state. I was afraid my mom would abandon me, and most likely die (I'm 30 years old, btw). I needed help with every seemingly normal aspect of daily existance, as if I were a small child.A sense of impending doom also sets in, however it is impossible to pinpoint exactly what you are afraid of might happen. It is an experience of CONSTANT DREAD AND FEAR. For me, I felt as if I were trapped in a terrifying horror film (A nightmare on Elm Street comes to mind). These are only some of the many symptoms I experienced. It was an absolutely dreadful time in my life.Anyone who is considering going off of benzodiazepines, must err on the side of extreme caution, and only proceed under the guidance of a very competent physician. They must IMHO have extensive knowledge of how to properly taper one off of these very addictive medications.
Have you ever been tied down and tickled?
I have had many opportunities to engage in long, playful, restrained tickling encounters and in most cases, they involve full-body tickling. That said, I allow my tickle partners to decide how much clothing they want to wear in any encounter and I generally go by the rule - IF IT IS EXPOSED, IT IS SUBJECT TO TICKLING. The exception to this rule is when my tickle partner tells me that one or more places are off-limits. This does not happen very often though. In my encounters, we take turns being restrained to a bed in the spread-eagle position. Sometimes we are face-up and sometimes we are face-down. I use soft Sports Cuff restraints so that they do not hurt the wrists or ankles. In general, we take turns being tickled for 1 - 3 hours at a time however there are air breaks as needed. Since my tickle partners and I always respect each other's limits, desires, concerns and we always strive to keep it fun for both of us at all times, the time flies in these encounters. Feel free to email me if you want more details.
