Thanks. Took her to the doc this afternoon (actually a chiropractor who specializes in sports injuries. he's been very good with treating/stretching out her left hand to prevent injury there). He said she doesn't have a hernia, but some muscles in her abdomen are strained, most likely from practicing and from doing a number of concerto competitions during the pats two months. She is also a sax player, and that takes more air. So she has to cut back on practicing, which has really upset her--right before two national level competitions.

I looked it up online and discovered that musicians do get hernias from playing--mostly brass and saxophonists.
