Parathyroid issuses
I have high calcium levels both blood and urine,,Did PTH test Emdo said was fine at 26 with calcium level at 10.1.My kidney stone problems is getting worse, and Im drinking lots of fluids and taking water pills as well pills too .I had a TT many years back, my stone problems started after that..My calcium was high after surgery so they stopped the normal OsCal treatment you get after removal..I am in the Middle east now and my D levels are low at 10,so I can not see my Endo any more,, sould I get a ultra sound done on my Parathyroids, since my doc before said it was not nessasary
I understand surgery removing the thyroid and about parathyroids not being touched.
Yes parathyroids have been moved to other parts of the body to function. I know that too.
What you have expressed in your posts defenately reflect a possible parathryoid situation -
Appropriate testing to start with (if you had not had this ) would be:
PTH - VitD - serum and ionized calcium - phosphorus - YOur calcium testing of 10.1 is high but a doctor may look at it as a sub clincial problem.
A Sestamibi scan may help also.
Classic signs of a parathyroid issue is stones. I think you should see the website parathyroid.com

Removing of the thyroid glads does involve leaving the parathyroids un touched. Or as Ive heard they can move them,Been to urologist many time and had four surgery to romove large stones,shock treatment and laser removel, I'm looking for damaged parathyroid glands.Only the urologist can do is put me on water pills and drink drink drink.
I always check back on your answer when I comment on these types of questions.

You need to pursue a really good dr. I agree with stella5349.
Can you see a kidney dr too?

Your TT should have nothing really to do with your parathyroids
An ultra scan will not matter
You need a sestamibi scan to determine issues on the parathyroid.
