That sounds like pretty good news, or at least not bad news. I hope it continues to go well for you.

Thanks!

It's pretty amazing news actually. I was terrified that I will be in a position that my brother was around my age. He didn't stop growing until he was 22, all while having similar problems relating to heart and growth in general. There was a time where he could not stand up because his heart was getting strained from the amount of work it took to pump blood that high (203cm or about 6'8" in Wizard Units). He's much better now, but still needs to be subjected to regular cardiological checks.

I am a bit annoyed that I can't train as hard as I am used to, but it's probably for the best. I'm already approaching grey alien look in terms of height, weight, posture and pallid skin colour :P. As I have said, that's hardly a price to pay considering all other outcomes.
