Fran- Our John was Dx October 2004 at age 14. His growth stopped right
there at 4'11 1/2" and weight in 70's.  Gleevec 400 until raise to 500
about 3 months ago- just received great news from OHSU lab: bcr/abl
.001! Endocronologists also say no to growth hormone.  More testing
coming up.
So little info on growth problems available.  Seems to be a rare side
effect of Gleevec.  We did advise Dr. Druker of our problem some time
ago, but he is not our MD and he may not have noted the connection.
