Hi John,

I have a "medical dictionary" handy, and the closest I can come is the word, acholuria - which means absense of bile pigment from the urine.

But, I see that 6 parts of the body start with the word, occipital. I don't really see a definition of the word, but most are about bones. But one is occipital artery, which comes off of the carotid artery. And, I know that that is a dangerous artery in the neck area which can cause stroke, etc.

P.S. Thank you to the person who mentioned "right-clicking" to turn the page around.






From Wikipedia

The word occipital, in Zoology, pertains to the occiput (rear of the skull)
