i don't think you meant to quote me... but i'm not sure either. perhaps that why caldje edited his msg too. that's why i didn't offer much more than what i did. *lol*

I just had a young female patient in with LLQ abd. pain and she ended up having a teratoma, which was located by a translady partsl ultrasound. I'm not giving medical advice, just telling you about my patient with a similar complaint. Hope you find out what is going on with your patient.
