Re: Has anyone heard of "Girth Pain?"

I took that to mean abdominal pain. Google search pointed me to lots of
horse sites, but nothing that seemed to have anything to really do with
humans. The definitions I've found in my days-long, obsessive search all
confirm my hunch that it's like saying "My circumference hurts." Kinda
makes sense, but more doesn't.
Thanks for the references, but don't they refer to the measurement of the
abdomen, rather than an area that could cause pain?
After a death in the family, my son starting kindergarten, a newly diagnosed
& incredibly painful ulcer, and a dictator that is not paying any attention
whatsoever, my brain is fried to the point of non-existent. I still don't
get it. Does it make sense enough to some of you that perhaps I should look
at it again in a week?

I've heard that more than once over the years. There are even Google
references to it. Here's one:
