Did my body just re-regulate its hormone and calcium levels on it’s own?     Next time… I plan on praying FIRST!

I am anxious to get back my latest calcium numbers. Post surgery my calcium was at 13.2. I am sure it will test more in the normal range now. I am blessed.

I am so glad that I had it done. Initially, one adenoma was detected, but into surgery, it was found that three glands were involved. I was in surgery for seven hours, which was certainly longer than expected, but have recovered well. My normal blood pressure of 110/60 had elevated to 162/95 prior to the surgery. I had an episode with kidney stones and had been diagnosed with osteopenia. I am happy to say that my blood pressure is back to normal and I am not experiencing persistent bone pain and nausea. In fact, three weeks post-op, I took a two week vacation to India. I will have a bone density in a couple of months to determine bone improvement. I am exercising five days a week.

One thing the calcium does to your body is to cause constipation which could be causing you the stomach issues... ask your pharmacist for a good product to help with that... what symptoms are you having? My pain went away almost immediately, my heart wasn't racing, my blood pressure is totally normal... so if you are still having symptoms you should tell your endocrinologist right away!
