You have another thread going and I can't remember all the particulars in it.  It's usually best to keep all your questions in the same thread so we don't have to keep asking the same questions.  

A parathyroid tumor doesn't necessarily mean cancer.  Typically, once the offending parathyroid is removed, everything is okay.

If I remember correctly, don't you also have issues with a parotid gland and the left lobe of your thyroid gland?
