A member asked:
My liver is enlarged. it is 19 cm. does that mean something is wrong?

Maybe: Big span even if you're a big person. If your span is just big because you have a riedel's lobe (liver shapes are quite variable), it's nothing. If your liver is diffusely enlarged, i'd be seriously concerned -- especially about the metabolic syndrome.
