الإجابة: B. osteoarthritis
The sources attribute joint pain in acromegaly to arthralgia from joint tissue (cartilage) overgrowth affecting large weight-bearing joints and the spine — a degenerative, non-inflammatory arthropathy, i.e. osteoarthritis among the options. It is not an autoimmune process (RA), and the notes do not link it to body weight.
