Brief Summary: OBJECTIVES I Compare growth hormone GH levels at baseline and after glucose suppression measured with both a polyclonal radioimmunoassay and a highly sensitive immunoradiometric assay IRMA in patients with acromegaly and normal volunteers

II Measure the levels of IGF-I and its binding protein IGFBP-3 in these cohorts

III Determine any correlation between levels of IGF-I and IGFBP-3 and GH suppressibility as assessed by sensitive IRMA

IV Determine if patients who demonstrate biochemical features of mild GH excess are at risk for progression to active disease
Detailed Description: PROTOCOL OUTLINE Blood samples are collected and assessed for growth hormone and IGF-I by polyclonal radioimmunoassay RIA and immunoradiometric assay IRMA Growth hormone is measured at baseline and 60 90 and 120 minutes after a 100 g glucose drink Serum glucose is measured at baseline and at 2 hours post dextrose administration by the glucose hexokinase method

Clinical scores are determined for headache perspiration fatigue joint pain and acne

Exams and tests may be repeated every 6 months for 2 years
