Re: Palpating
If you felt only one marble then chances are you felt a urate.
When you can feel follicles you generally feel a string of them.
It feels like a string of evenly spaced and mostly evenly sized pearls.

Maybe she had just tensed up so I couldn't feel anything after the first time. I will try again here in a few minutes.
Try using a pillow case or snake bag to lessen friction while shes going through your hand, that will make it much easier as she won't tense up as much and you can push a little bit harder...when I palpate, my snake will squeeze down to 1/3 or so of her normal thickness
