I think i have an enlarged spleen because where my sleep is sticks out more that anyother place. is that a symptom?

Enlarged spleen: It needs to be at least 3 times as much it's size to stick out the way you described, then you would have other symptoms not just spleen felt, if you believe you do have an enlarged spleen, kindly see your doctor for evaluation
