Thank you I am seeing that parathyroid surgeon next week in columbus ohio. I hoping that i didnt have to do the surgery thing again since i had such a bad time the first time with the stroke and them not being able to fix the problem since my first surgeon they sent me too was only a general surgeon thanks again.
It is important to have calcium measured at the same time parathyroid hormone is measured.
For hortonpnky -- if the calcium and parathyroid are still high, then you need to see an expert parathyroid surgeon to find the problem -- check out parathyroid.com for more info.
For Ms Janey P -- check the calcium level, if normal, continue with the neurological evaluation.
DIID YOU CHECK YOUR CALCIUM LEVEL?
I had parathyroid surgery 2004 for removal of an adenoma. The surgery seemed to go well. Approximately 2 months after surgery, I began to experience numbness/tingling in my right arm and leg, which I describe more as a tingling feeling. I have been to a number of doctos including a neurologist who did a lot of tests including nerve conduction, a physical therapist for treatment. As of today I still have no relief from this problem and no answers. Could this somehow be related to the Parathyroid surgery? Please help, I dont' know where to turn now.
