lying centrally
It's confusing because "lay" takes an object: The hen will lay an egg." "I will lie down for a nap." But the past tense of lie is "lay," and that is confusing.
lie present tense
lay past tense
laid/lain past perfect tense
Lying centrally, however, is a gerund, a sort of adjective hybrid. If you made it "laying centrally," you would need an object (the hen and egg business again).
Lying is correct in this case. Laying takes a subject, sm

Laying is correct if she is laying an egg or laying a baby down for a nap. If you recline, you are lying. Sounds like a insult, doesn't it, like she isn't telling the truth.

The patient was lied flat on the bed
laid or lain? This is my favorite confusion.
I know that with laid you need an object. So is the pt the object? or is the pt the one reclining? which would make it lain. I think....Ahhhh
 This is me in my head right now.

Under physical exam, my doc says "There is a healed right upper parasternal surcigal scar." The patient had a thymectomy.
