It is kind of eerie you mention growth factors here, as I only recently read an article about growth factors and Hypermobility Syndrom. (published July 2001).

It was not about treatment, it was measuring growth hormone, insuline and insuline-like growth factor-1 in in HMS people.
Aparently people with HMS have elevated levels of several growth facors.
I am not a doctor and I don't know what these findings imply (anyone who can elucidate this?) but it just hit me as a great coincidence that you would mention something about growth factors on the board.
