Ok, i am not sure if i have dwarfism or not. I am the shortest person in my family, i am 18, and i am only 4'7'' everyone else is average height. I also have hydrocephalus, which i know is common in dwrfism. and, sometimes it gets annoying when people don't believe me when i tell them my age. i look alot younger than i am. Which i guess is a good thing. im a way. my sister who is 3 years younger than me, is a foot taller than me, and my brother who is 9, is the same height as me. i need advise on weather or not i might have dwarfism.

Maybe you could ask your doctor to give you a referral.
