my son is 4 yrs old, it is apparent now that he is suffering from pseudo-dwarfism as i did. he has curvature of his legs but his pediatrician is not convinced it is severe enough for surgery. i have read up recently on the synthetic and natural growth hormone treatments also. so my questions are, 1) do any of the gh treatments, natural or artificial, actually work with little to no side effect..and 2) with my son having the curvature in his legs would that need to be corrected still if the therapy worked or would it then correct itself?
