Have your Thyroid Checked ,do you have a intolerance to cold when everyone else is fine,dry skin and hair,trouble with going to bathroom,muscle cramps and minor aches and pains,thinning hair or loss of body in hair,all these sound too  familiar,but all this can be fixed with one pill a day.I've been on sinthyroid for 3 years and I feel sooo much better!

Check out parathyroid .com. It will answer your questions. If the Dr. is saying "Wait and See", that is very wrong.  I think I have this disease, but no one will listen because I believe I'm in the "hard to diagnose" area. No one will listen and I can't stand it anymore. I just made an appt. with an endocrinologist, to see what they see/say.

I'm no help at the moment, but I just got the same results and response from my doctor. High Calcium and to wait for more results. I also have high potassium and low carbon dioxide. Do you have any other "flagged" numbers? I'm considering going to a specialist. The information on the net IS scary. Jennifer

I would wonder if your parathyroid glands are compromised in some way.
