- Hi Royalties 👋 Please forgive me for being MIA, I've been through so much this past year. This video is different,
it's for anyone who's having issues with hyperthyroidism (Parathyroid Disease)
In my case I was diagnosed with this issue recently this year. As I explained my journey, I hope I can help anyone out there that's dealing with the same issues. My prayers goes out to you all 🙏🏽
I thank all of my Royalties for Watching And Subscribing 🥰
***Please feel free to leave any
comments or questions you may have down below***
Blessings Royalties ❤
Just came across your video, my journey was more than 12 months, same as you my calcium levels were high. I had ultrasound, CT Scan and MRI, my surgeon is a star, and explained everything thoroughly. My surgery was scheduled for November 2023 but a week before I contracted COVID and then subsequently had 2 chest infections. I finally got my surgery last Tuesday and am on the way to recovery.
Amen!! I pray you're feeling better Let me know if you have anymore questions.
I am scheduled for the consult with the surgeon in October after seeing an endocrinologist in June. I'm so ready to get this done, have had alot of the same issues and didn't know why. Thanks for sharing and I hope you're feeling better soon.
Thank you for this video. I hope you’re feeling great and back to normal. I just had my blood work done and my PTH is at 152 and it’s supposed to be 60. I got online and chased the problem to parathyroid and then came to RUclips for some more info…that’s when I found you and this video, so now when I see my dr on Wednesday, I will be ready for the drill and know what to expect. Wishing you ALL THE BEST!
Hi, mine was 152 also. See specialist next week. How did your appointment go?
A lot of the doctors that don’t look like us have a bad habit of giving us the worst news idk why this is ? Only thing I can see is that they don’t like us and wanna upset us. I was done this way also th dr the was Asian. Then they wonder why we don’t trust them. Glad you feeling better.
Thank you for your helpful video! Sharing is caring and i appreciate you. I am scheduled for a parathyroidectomy in November. Like you, my blood work showed high levels of calcium in my blood (hypercalcemia). I experienced some of the same symptoms as you did. I can't wait to get the parathyroid adenoma removed! Be well, and thanks again 🙏 🤗
Thanks for sharing, I am having surgery Nov. 1st and the symptoms that you had are the same ones I have. So praying all goes well on Nov. 1st, once again thank you for sharing it has really helped.🙏🏾
I pray for quick recovery for you and may God touch the hands of your caretakers. You will feel so much better mentally and physically trust me. Take care my friend. Thank you for your comment.
Thanks for the video! Do you mind if I ask what hospital and center you went to? It sounded so good! I am trying to decide where to have surgery.
Hello your video really has helped me I just got my lab results back last week & mine blood work showed PTH levels are up I just knew something was wrong with my symptoms were low energy, headaches, blood pressure out of wack, weight loss, heart rate was up & down so I got to go see a endocrinologist you really helped me because I was very scared thanks 🥰
You will feel 100% better soon I promise ❤ If you need surgery please have it done. It's going to be alright no worries. Have a Blessed Weekend. Please let me know if you have any more questions.
I’ve been diagnosed with primary hyperparathyroidism but doctor is checking for some other things!!! Thanks for sharing your experience!!! I pray to get 10 star ⭐️ treatment when I have surgery!!!!
Amen 10 star ⭐ treatment indeed 🙏🏽 God bless you and I pray all goes well luv 🙏
Girl. I am a nurse of 20 years. I am scheduled for surgery 8/10/2023. Girl. So true. Thanks!!!
I pray all goes well with your surgery. May God bless you. May God touch the hands of your caregivers.
Thank you so much for your encouragement ! Feel better and better❤

Norman Parathyroid Center and Hospital. Please pull them up they are Absolutely Amazing 5 star for sure. Treated me like a queen from beginning to end. The best surgeon's definitely 👍 I recommend 👌
My wife’s Endocrinologist had the exact same alarmist reaction while diagnosing her. He went as far as to mention cancer! I don’t know why some doctors get overly excited about a very rare chance at it being cancer instead of just informing the patient the simple fact that primary hyperparathyroidism is very curable with a simple surgery. smh
These doctors are out of control 😒 I pray that your wife feels better soon 🙏
@@NeshaAntoinette Thank you!
I had surgery on my parathyroid yesterday. They had to remove two of the four. One was 20% larger than the normal size of a parathyroid. Currently my neck is sore but mentally I feel 100% better. I have been dealing with tiredness and depression for several years. My primary care doctor started noticing my calcium levels and sent me to a specialist that determined I had hyper parathyroid. I hope to continue feeling this good with energy I currently have and it’s only been one day.
Amen!! I'm so happy for you. Fast recovery my friend 🙏🏼 Yes...You will start feeling brand new, it's such a great feeling. Also taking Nature's Truth Extra Strength Ashwagandha 3000 mg has changed my life my doctor approved of it. My surgeon recommended me putting the highest dose of vitamin E oil on your incision after 3 or 4 weeks and I tell you my scar disappeared. Take care my friend feel better.
Blessings 🙏🏼
@@NeshaAntoinette thank you for your support. I have ordered the ashwagandha.
Better day's are coming for you I promise. There is hope and you're not alone.
Be Encouraged!
I just came across your video, glad I did because I’m going to have my surgery in March. I started having the same symptoms as you and didn’t understand what was happening. I also did the same test as you and got the diagnosis. My surgery was supposed to happen on January 2nd but anesthesiologist mixed it due to me recovering from the flu and still having the rough coughing. She didn’t think it was a good idea to put more stress my respiratory system. So now it’s March. Glad yours went well
Omg! I understand and I'm so sorry you have to go through this. I forgot to mention this but I had the same issue with coughing and they went on ahead and did my surgery. It's funny because soon after my surgery the coughing went away. I pray that all goes well with you and trust me, you're going to feel 100% better. As long as your calcium level goes down and the same with your parathyroid level then you will be alright no worries. Thank you for commenting 🙏🏽
Thank you 🙏🏽 your video eased some of the fear because of your experience. So I’m ready to face it and ready to feel much better ❤
Amen!! You're going to feel 100% better after you heal from having surgery. Please use the highest number of real vitamin E oil out there to heal and flatten your incision. I'm not a doctor but my surgeon told me to use this oil atleast 3 weeks after my surgery and for me to hide my incision from the sun. The vitamin E oil works like a champ. You can barely see my small incision on my neck 👍🏼 All your symptoms will go away. You will get your life back mentally and physically 🥰
Well you look great and I’m glad you are better.. that was a pretty large gland that grew . Did you go the Norman parathyroid endocrine hospital 🏥 in Tampa ? Because that’s where I went to get my parathyroid glands removed they weren’t as big as yours but I had three taken out. my symptoms where exhaustion and I couldn’t lose weight. I Gained 40 pounds over one year . I feel better now . But I still can’t loose the weight .
thanks for your story. ❤ your are very pretty and sweet
Hi there I'm glad you're feeling better. The weight will come off just walk every day, watch your sugar and salt intake but what's most important is watching saturated fats in everything you eat. A low fat diet will help you lose that weight. Drink Lots of water. Vitamin D3 is very important per doctor's orders for me. Thank God my parathyroid is doing just fine, everything's back to it's normal levels 🙏🏽 I'm on a low fat diet to lower my cholesterol and it's not been easy, I've put on some extra weight within this past year and it's been very challenging. I'm at the gym riding the treadmill at least 4 times a week and I love it 😀 I've lost 5 pounds this week thank God. This weight must come off... I hate it!! Nevertheless All is well my friend and I pray things get better for you. Be Encouraged my friend, feel better 🙏🏽stay hydrated 💦💪🏼Keep going thing's will get better soon. Don't forget to subscribe 🥰
Thanks Nesha for your story!
Thank you for taking the time to make this video.
You're quite welcome my friend.
Thank you for sharing your story!!! I may have to have surgery as well. God Bless you!!!🙏❤️🙏
I pray all goes well 🙏
thank you for sharing. I have 2 little nods on my parathyroid. Question: Did they removed the tumor only and leave the gland? Thank you in advance
Hello! Thank you for sharing your story. I have been diagnosed with the same disease. Will you share the name of the medical facility that treated you?
Hello and Thank you for speaking on this I’m going through same thing.. question where did you get your surgery at? I’ve researched and know the center in Florida I supposed to be #1
Norman Parathyroid Center
Surgery was done at HCA the old Town and Country Hospital.
I highly recommend this center and hospital 1000%
They treat you like Royalty OMG!!
Hospital Of Endocrine Surgery
Feel better 😌 🙏🏾
Yes!! I highly recommend this center as well. First Class!!
I have developed chronic anxiety from hyperparathyroidism. I’m hoping it goes after surgery
You will get your life back my friend. Things will get better. You will surely feel like a new person. I'm not a doctor but my doctor advised me to purchase (kAL)Chelated Magnesium Bisglycinate. This supplement is great for many things especially for anxiety and depression. I just started taking this supplement and I'm extremely calm and relaxed Unbelievable!! I even sleep like a baby. I'm shocked 😲
I pray all be well with your surgery. Be Encouraged
Take care.
@@NeshaAntoinette Thankyou so much. This whole disease has messed me up big time. Hope you’re better too ♥️
Don't you worry you will feel better mentally and physically after your surgery. Your calcium and parathyroid levels will go back down to normal. Your symptoms will go away. Eating healthier meals, atleast 20 minute exercises a day. Walking is very helpful and please drink a lot of water. Trust me LIFE CHANGING 💪🏾👍🏽💃 You will feel so much better. I'm a witness!
Cheer up everything will be just fine. I pray that your surgery is set to be soon. Please use the highest strength of vitamin E on your Incision. Please tell the surgeon to do a neat job so you can barely see the Incision.
Yes I feel 100% better! The end of August will be a year since my parathyroid surgery 🙏🏽 God is Good, I am so thankful.
Be Encouraged!
@@NeshaAntoinette you are so amazing!! Thankyou so much for this and I am so blessed to have found this video. I am so glad you are doing well!! ♥️
@@NeshaAntoinette im so annoyed. I went to the ENT department at the hospital today and they said I need a CT scan to see about the tumour. Then I asked if the calcium levels cause the bad anxiety and he said they are not related at all. But they must be!! 😭♥️
God bless you!!
I received Amen!!
God bless you and your family as well 🙏
Thanks for this video! I was just diagnosed with hypercalcemia/ hyperparathyroidism as well. I am also anemic. Did your parathyroid have anything to do with your anemia??
Absolutely!!
I'm sorry to hear that about your parathyroid issue. You will feel so much better after your surgery.
Blessings friend
That was a great question because I’m going through the same and was wondering
What a horrible way to introduce hyperparathyroidism! Maybe start with the diagnosis explanation BEFORE jumping into "you need surgery"?? Ffs, doctor
I'm so sorry you were attacked that way with the situation rather than a reasonable introduction to the disease. I had my 3.5 parathyroidectomy on 11/27. First sign was a calcium of 10.8 last Nov. Parathyroid cancer is Rare. A benign tumor or hyperplasia is the usual cause of primary hyperparathyroidism, as diagnosed via labs - site only sometimes confirmed and.condition treated via skilled surgery
@@NeshaAntoinette What are you talking about? I said that the way it was introduced to you was awful. At the first lab, telling you about the high calcium and why you needed new labs would have been kinder and would have served to avoid causing a panic. None of how things were presented to you, as shared on your video, have anything to do with what you did OR what you could control. I was clearly speaking facetiously, to the MD who sent you into a panic by waiting until After the nuclear test to tell you what was going on.
I don't feel like you've been mean because, in reading, it seems I was misunderstood.
Forgive me for the misunderstanding. Your comment was missed read. Please forgive me, I had a bad day yesterday. I found out that my parathyroid levels has gone up but my calcium level is real good thank God. I might need surgery again after I speak with the endocrinologist 😭 Once again Please forgive me for misunderstanding your comment 🙏
@@NeshaAntoinette I'm so sorry to read that! Hopefully, they can get them all this time. For me, diagnosed with depression since 2004 but living with it on some level since my early teens the 80s, increasing anxiety was my main, increasing symptom since last year. The good thing was that it was the first thing that I noticed was back under control post-op. The "psychiatric groans" part of the picture is so real, only made worse by the physical symptoms that we don't know how to categorize as normal or not normal. The longer the disease (at least 5 years for me, judging by when my calcium hit the "normal" 10s. No adult should be in the 10s,apparently), the more struggling with fatigue, brain fog, etc., making us feel so old and untrusting of how we're going to feel from day to day.
It's a hard way to live. The nurse in me came out when hearing how somebody in that position would have relief presented as a scary thing, rather than the helpful solution that it should have been!
I do pray that they find them all this time. The scans are really only to help the surgeon pinpoint where to look. It really comes down to them to explore and catch them all (sometimes in the mediastinum). One of mine was up above the hyoid bone (above the voice box) on the left, which wasn't noted on film. My surgeon checked my PTH during surgery to confirm success. Hopefully, you'll have access to a board certified endocrine surgical specialist who will help this surgery be the cure that it should 🙇🏾♀️
How long were you out of work? Thanks for your video
I have to have all 4 of mine remove. I ALWAYS feel like someone’s hands are around my neck. I’ve been asking everyone and no one know what I’m talking about ALSO I’ve lost over 30 pounds and dr keep telling me weight loss isn’t a symptom…😳😳😳
Wow!! Do you still feel any symptoms? I'm so sorry to hear this. Weight loss for my understanding was not one of the symptoms from which I was told. In my case I didn't loose any weight at all. How are you feeling now? Are you on any medications due to them taking all 4 of your parathyroid? I'm going to ask my doctor this coming Thursday about your question just to see what she says. Did you develop thyroid eyes or blurry vision?
Thanks for messaging me. Let me know if you have anymore questions 🙂 I pray you're feeling better. Do you still feel like someone's choking you even after the surgery? My surgery was just this past August and my hormones and everything else is trying to catch up. Thank God my calcium level at the norm now 🙏
What was your calcium level? Mine is 10.6. I just found out today mine is enlarged.
I don't remember at this moment, I have to go back in my medical records to find out. However my levels are back to normal thank God. My endocrinologist put me on Vitamin D3 and took the water out of my blood pressure pills and low and behold my calcium and my parathyroid levels both went down. 🙏🏽 My God is so faithful 🙌 I pray that you're feeling better.
I've had three and a half parathyroids removed. Calcium was seeping out of my bones. I can relate.
I hope all is well 🙏
@@NeshaAntoinette Thanks. Same to you!
My surgeon screwed my surgery up so I’m not cured and fighting to have surgery again. Ugh. Just got confirmation from another surgeon that I still have primary hyperparathyroidism. It’s been 9 months since my original surgery. My symptoms have only gotten worse. I wanted to have my surgery at Norman parathyroid but my insurance wouldn’t cover it so I had mine at Cleveland clinic which I thought would be ok. Ugh. So frustrated. Have your symptoms resolved? Trying to stay positive but so hard. And thank you for the insurance tip! Omg I would’ve never known that!
Hi there Christi I'm so sorry to hear this about your surgery that's horrible. It takes time for your levels to go back to normal. My levels took month's almost a year. What helped my levels go back to normal was my Endocrinologist put me on vitamin D pills and took the water out of my high blood pressure pills and it worked. My calcium is back down to where it should be. My parathyroid has gone down but not quite all the way down from my last doctors visit but the doctor said that was fine as long as my calcium levels were down then everything was fine thank God. How many parathyroids did they take out? My doctor told me going back in was never a good thing and that worried the heck out of me. Thank God I checked out fine this past January 🙏🏼 I'm praying for you, I can't imagine what you're going through because of all of this. No worries everything will be ok. I pray that they get the job done right the second time around. Please keep me updated on your next surgery and progress 🙏
Thanks again for the update. This too shall past!
Norman Parathyroids Center in Tampa,Florida is where I will be going to have my parathyroids surgery..
The #1 Parathyroids surgery center in the world. Ppl drives and fly from around.
Good luck
Thank you for this I also need surgery not able to see surgeon for another month was wondering what to expect Now I know thanks again
I pray all is well 🙏
Hi again! quick question when you contacted the facility in Florida- how long did it take you to actually get an appointment for surgery? I’m in Texas so not sure if there’s a long wait ? Thank you have a wonderful day!
About 3 weeks however it was totally up to me because I thought I had to come up with my out of pocket deposit before I could schedule the surgery which that's what they told me at Norman Parathyroid Center. That information was so wrong. They tried to get me to pay $400 upfront before my surgery and I almost did. How could they give me that fee when they never processed anything with my insurance company 🙄 PLEASE do not pay anything until they process with your insurance company. That $400 they asked me to pay ended up being ZERO!
My insurance paid the entire bill and all I had to pay was $21.00.
I could've scheduled my surgery sooner if I had known that I didn't have to pay a dime for my surgery. It doesn't take long to schedule your surgery. It's up to you and their availability on their surgery schedule.
Yes I seen on the website if you live out of state there’s is a $1700 fee! But I have good insurance so thank you so much for all of the information! Blessings to you and your family ❤️
You are so welcome
God's Blessings to you and family Rebecca. I pray you have a successful surgery. No worries 👍🏽 They will take good care of you I promise.
❤
I've just had one parathyroid gland removed and weight loss was very evident for me. Apparantly you can get muscle wastage with it and also the pth hormone can stimulate the white fat cells and they become 'exited' and turn to brown cells (skinny people have more brown cells) and so in some people weight loss occurs. I was normal weight for years being vegetarian and this disease certainly took its toll on me. Hopefully now it's been 3 weeks since my surgery and I can start to gain weight again! Hope you can too.
Did anyone have any type of ear pressure ? Or Head? I do. My Parathyroid is high, calcium 9.5 and D was low at 12. Now I’m a 109.
I didn't have any kind of ear pressure but I surely had other symptoms. I pray you feel better soon.
It sounds like your doctor did a horrible job explaining what exactly everything meant, before suggesting surgery. Just ridiculous.
Thank God I'm ok now 🙏
Thank you for your video. I have hyperthyroidism but no tumor so it's "secondary." And I have felt hideous for years. We're trying to figure out what's causing it. 🌷
I pray that you feel better soon. My thyroid doctor took me off of water pills that's connected with my blood pressure medication and put me on vitamin D3 and low and behold my calcium and parathyroid levels went down back to normal but it took 1 year for this to happen after my surgery. My God is so Good. Be Encouraged my friend. You shall get better!
@@NeshaAntoinette thank you so much
🙏🏻🌷💗🌷🙏🏻
Very nervous. My calcium level was a 10.9 and PTH was 65. Vitamin D levels were slightly elevated as well. Doctor wants to wait and see but I want to see a Endocrinologist. This is really making me nervous. I have been really fatigued as well as numerous kidney stones.
Nuclear medicine scan made it very clear that my parathyroid needed to come out. No doubt about it!! My doctor did not wait. The blood test told it all as well. I was immediately referred over to the parathyroid surgery center. I did not see a thyroid doctor until after my surgery. I'm so sorry you're not feeling good I truly understand. After my surgery my calcium levels are back to normal and I am now taking vitamin D pills as well. I was scared but don't you worry everything will be alright. I'm not a doctor but that Nuclear medicine scan will clear things up as for as being absolutely clear about your parathyroid. Feel better soon 🙏🏽
How are you feeling now?! What’s the update
For both
Honestly, it could be worse because my PTH levels are almost 100 which is almost double yours and my symptoms are very bad and then also my vitamin D is very low and my calcium is very high
@@NeshaAntoinette The Norman Parathyroid Center does the nuclear scan the same day as surgery. Don't have this done twice. All they need is your blood test results to diagnose you. They do not need a nuclear scan to diagnose you ahead of the surgery. The quality of the scan depends upon the experience of the one doing the scan. Have the specialized parathyroid doctors take care of all of this for you. They know what they are doing. Go there first.
I don't know your age, but you appear to be a bit older than so many other who talk about this topic. I am age 72 do have several Autoimmune Conditions (including Autoimmune Hashimoto's) and wondering if I am going to take longer to recovery from surgery....I am not familiar with a nuclear medicine scan......My symptoms are extreme exhaustion and frequent urination. at night. I need to know how many of these operations this surgeon has done. Thank you for sharing.
Hi there... Are you having surgery? Is it your parathyroid? Or Thyroid alone? Recovery didn't take long. I asked around and the woman that I asked went back to work 3 day's after their surgery. I can truly say I didn't feel good at the first week after my surgery due to all the meds they gave me during surgery. Nevertheless I feel great and this month makes 1 year since I've had my parathyroid surgery. Feel better soon 🙏🏽
Hi all. I just had surgery 5 weeks ago. Doing well praise God. Had two removed on left side. UPMC Pittsburgh DR YIP. EXCELLENT surgeon.
PUT OFF surgeryFOR A YEAR
I WAS SCARED TOO. THANKS FOR SHARING. GOD BLESS
Praise God I'm so happy for you. God is good and faithful. Take care and thank you for your comment's.
How long does it take for the surgeon to do the surgery? Were you just in hospital for the day? Hope you are going well now😊
Hi there 😊
It took 1 week after my 1st initial consultation. It's based on the surgeon's schedule. 1 day surgery, they send you home same day.
I feel just fine! My levels are back normal thank God. Thank you so much!
You're very kind 😊
I checked my blood work and found that my PTH Intact level is 355 pg/ml which is very high. My calcium is 8.8 which is normal. My doctor never said anything about it.
Wow... Unbelievable 🤔
Blood work is so important.
How are you feeling?
because your ca;cium is normal your doctor probably ustt old you to go out in the sun and takeD supplements
I just got diagnosed with this. I will try natural way before i decide surgery
I'm sorry to hear this. I pray that you will feel better soon. The nature way is possible 🙏🏻 Sometimes we have this issue for year's and not know anything about it until now. The Parathyroid Doctor & Surgeon said I had this parathyroid issue for years and I had no idea. I'm a person that go to my doctor for everything I mean everything but nevertheless this was an issue that I needed fixed immediately 2 years ago and I'm perfectly fine now Thank God. Please keep me posted 🙏
@@NeshaAntoinette Nesha i will update you with my case. The doctor was not happy that i didn't agree immediately but he knows that i do not like their attitude towards curing sick people. Western medicine is too much connected to farma. I read that one guy got cured by fasting and using k2 vit and org black cumin oil. I will try . We have to change our lifestyle and with the help of God everything will be fine
God bless you❤
@@zaklinakovace6792I understand your reluctance to trust doctors, but I’m one who has been taking Vitamin D3 & K2 for a number of years and I just got test results saying I too have hyperparathyroid disease and one of my four glands may be damaged or not working so I have to have nuclear imaging done in two weeks to see which lights up. I think the most important thing for me was be able have options in terms of who would do the surgery-that’s resolved for me-so if I need surgery I will get it! I trust God more than man, so don’t take unnecessary risk. Blessings to you as you make that decision.
Apparently the only cure is surgery. How do you stop the overactive parathyroid gland with natural means? If you find something that works, please tell everyone and post on social media but I don't think there is anything else that can be done but surgery to remove the enlarged and overproducing parathyroid gland. They just get bigger and bigger.
Your doc didn't explain anything to you?? Time for a new doctor!
Great doctor all is well. Thank God my parathyroid is back to normal.
Hi What we’re your symptoms? Did it effect your energy level, blood pressure and heart rate?
Any chance did you have any ear pressure? Or head pressure?
No ear pressure but I did develop ringing in my ears.
Yes it did effect my energy level and blood pressure absolutely 💯 However it did not effect my heart rate thank God. I was always exhausted omg! Nevertheless I am just fine now, all levels are back to normal thank you Lord 🙏🏽 I pray you're feeling better soon.
Where in neck was it located? Could you see it?
Right in the center of my lower neck line and it was not noticeable at all from the outside, not even a lump I don't think. However that tumor was huge 😳
Ms Nesha I hope you are doing well❤ another question for you, did you have a high ldl cholesterol with Hyperparathyroidism and if so was there a change after surgery?
Hi Rebecca how are you? I pray all is well ❤ Very good question.
Yes my cholesterol was very high and I was put on a low cholesterol diet way before my surgery. I go back to my primary doctor in February to check my cholesterol levels and I pray to God it's gone down. I have to eat the right foods and exercise to get my cholesterol down. You practicly can't eat anything while watching your cholesterol. This is not fun at all. Thank you for your comment Rebecca. Have a Good Day 💐
Thank you for all of your helpful information hope all goes well❤
You have bone pain ,body pain symptom perticular period
I used to have bone and body pain but not anymore. Every now and then some inflammation and mild arthritis. Other than that no bone pain at all.
Thanks for your comment ⭐
Particular period 🤔??
Are you saying menstrual period? 🤔
What were your symptoms????
All that information is available in this video
I felt like someone was choking me. Fatigue, absolutely no energy, depressed all the time. Anxiety out of this world. Blurry vision, panic attacks. Very bad headaches, brain fog, confusion and weight gain. Those were all my symptoms before my parathyroid surgery and they all were nightmares 😢 I thank God it's all over
What state are you in?
Florida
I love your video it describes exactly everything I’m going through. Your video was explained perfectly. I just realized my vision is getting blurred and I feel old like my body is breaking down and just don’t want to do nothing anymore. I meet my surgeon January 8th. I just want to be normal again 😢
This too shall pass 🙏🏽 I pray for good health for you. Thing's will get better. I'm sitting in front of the Endocrinology center now as we speak 01/04/2024
8:00 Am waiting to see my parathyroid specialist 😢 I had lab work done 2 weeks ago and my primary care doctor said my parathyroid has gone up. I'm so upset because I'm starting to get those same symptoms back again. Body aches 😫 blurred vision 😫 tired as ever. Depression, weird tension headaches not often but I have noticed that. I'm so scared because I don't want to have surgery again 😫 I have 3 parathyroids left and I don't want no other issues if I have to have them removed 😔 😭 I'm about to walk into my parathyroid appointment now please pray for me and I will do the same for you. Be Encouraged my friend 🙏🏼 Feel better.
@@NeshaAntoinette I'm sorry to hear that. I'm no doctor, but according to what I've researched, it's not unusual for your PTH to go up/fluctuate as long as your calcium level remains within the normal range over time. I'm sure your endocrinologist will get to the bottom of it. I'm praying for you that you will NOT require another surgery! Hopefully, the symptoms are just due to your anxiety upon hearing of the elevated PTH 🙏🏾
Thank you so much 🙏🏽 I had good news on this past Thursday. My Endocrinologist said the same thing, as long as my calcium level is down to where it should be then I'm doing good praise God 🙌 Everything's fine with my lab work except my bad cholesterol is high 😢 I've been struggling with this for a while now. I'm on a low cholesterol diet because right now I refuse to take the Statins because they make me so sick and it makes my body ache. Thanks again for your kindness 😊 I pray all is well with you.
@@NeshaAntoinette That's a blessing! I'm so glad to hear this. Maybe I should go to med school, LOL 😂 Too bad your cholesterol is high. Hopefully you'll get it under control. I'm fortunate that mine is only slighly elevated, so I have to watch my diet as well. Same with my glucose level. I'm starting to feel a little better and I just took a walk to the store after sitting around on the couch, watching TV since my surgery, lol. We had a little snow this morning, but it melted, so I decided to get my butt up and take a walk 🤣
