[Wi...] Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I don't know if this applies or even what to do about it, but you might want to google "Vagus nerve". It's the nerve that travels down below the head, to the neck, chest and abdomen. I think it may be that which is pounding. The vagus nerve is responsible for such varied tasks as heart rate, gastrointestinal peristalsis, sweating etc. Peristalsis is a radially symmetrical contraction and relaxation of muscles which propagates in a wave down a muscular tube. I know it sounds simple and it may not work, but taking several slow deep belly breaths activates the nervous system (autonaumic I think) and helps to quiet things down. It's worth a shot.
