Acromegaly and Other Pituitary Diseases Can Strike Anyone. Learn More, Learn the Truth Here at The "Official" Tanya Angus Website
A word from Karen (Tanya's Mom): "We want to thank every one who has taken the time to write to us. I read the Emails, Guestbook messages, Blog comments and candle wishes to Tanya and they make her smile! It really puts joy in her heart. Thank You, All!"
Maybe you're here because you saw Tanya in the Media or in, "Help ~ I'm Turning Into A Giant". If so, you should know that the success of lowering her growth hormone by way of medication (featured at the end of the program) was extremely short lived. Tanya's growth hormone shot up again in the following month and has remained very high above the normal level.
Perhaps you're here because you want to learn more about Acromegaly, Acromegalic Gigantism, or you or someone you know is wondering if they have the same condition. While both Tanya and Igor (featured in The Learning Channel/Discovery documentary) are extreme cases of Acromegaly, there are far more average looking people (similar to 'Mary', of the same program) affected by this disease, worldwide.
Whatever the reason, you've come to the right place and we're glad to have you! Tanya and her Mom Karen are happy to be helping people from all walks of life by sharing their story. >>> more
STATUS UPDATE~ May 16, 2012 Tanya is in the hospital once again with a blood clot in her leg. Thank you for your good thought and prayer~
March 28th, 2012 I just spoke with Karen; Tanya has been admitted to the hospital and is in I.C.U. She was vomiting and running a very high temperature. The cause of this setback is unknown but Doctors are checking for a bacterial infection. She's being given high doses of antibiotics and currently her temperature is normal. We ask for your prayers and if you feel so inclined, please light a virtual candle for Tanya (see left column). She can read these while being hospitalized.
Thank You!
