Acromeglia....Lurch (Ted Cassidy)...Andre the Giant for example.
Have a buddy from back home affected...also has an severely enlarged heart..
Thanks for telling us the name of the condition. Re your buddy -- a severely enlarged heart is one of the effects of the condition. It's really a tragic thing.
It is not acromeglia. Acromeglia is a condition where the hands, feet, head keep growing after the epiphyseal plates are closed. In other words, the body parts grow thicker,not longer. The person doesn't become taller due to acromegly..
This lady in the pic has giantism. Sometimes it is simpler than you think.
