Subject: long liver
I posted this on the main board and it disappeared so I'm trying again. Word help is not what I'm looking for though. I'm trying to find information on having a long liver....not an enlarged liver, but a long liver which I have been told can be a normal variant. In searching google for abnormal, long, length, etc., I am not coming up with anything pertaining to a long liver. I know it sounds weird. It is not a common thing to have but some people do and I would like more information. TIA.
