	Does anyone know if one lung is usually larger then the other one? My one lung is larger and I don't know if this is a concern or not. I have heard that kidneys aren't the same size, but was wondering about the lungs? It's my left one that is larger and since I have pain on that side, I am concerned since I saw the chest X-ray report about it being larger then the right one. back to square #1- off meds for now-Not been diagnosed as of yet. Have a positive ANA. . Pain reliever. sublingual B-12 , Chronic sinus infections. Asthma. Back to Top

	I don't believe any of our organ pairs are 100% identical. How much larger are you talking about? ^{@--->--Sherry--<---@} ^{Uc(Left-sided) since 1992 - Meds - Colazal, Canasa, Biotin, Coral Calcium...flaring since December 2005 :(} ^{Secondary Raynauds Syndrome since 2004} ^{Fibromyalgia since 2006} ^{Co-mod for Ulcerative Colitis} ^{Moderator for Allergies/Asthma} ^{Continue helping others such as yourself by donating to Healingwell, every penny counts!} http://www.healingwell.com/donate Back to Top
