View 1 RepliesHyperparathyroidism? Calcium And Vitamin D Levels
So I just got blood tests back and my vitamin d was 26 which is low and my calcium was 10.3 which is a tad high. I am 25 year old female. Should I be concerned about hyperparathyroidism?? I didn't get my PTH checked but my thyroid is normal. I don't know if they have anything to do.
View 2 RepliesBad Parathyroid? Symptoms? Calcium And Vitamin D Levels?
I have nearly all symptoms of a bad parathyroid. I am changing doctors as I am not pleased with his responses. My parathyroid hormones have been high for two years+. My calcium level stays at 10-10.4, with anything over 10.5 being considered high. Do I just go to a surgeon or what do I do? With sudden symptoms beginning over two years ago, I feel it is a bad parathyroid. In my last blood work, my VIT D was even LOW, which I understand can also be a symptom.

I have had a raised parathyroid hormone blood result recently also a raised calcium in the blood result. I had raised calcium levels several years ago but after a scan of my parathyroid glands which showed no growths it was put down to lack of Vitamin D and called secondary parathyroidism
I was told to increase my Vitamin D levels which I did and my calcium level dropped. I have continued on the supplementation. I have severe sleep problems, am tired and grumpy, my hypothyroidism been under control for the last 8 years. I am borderline diabetic. Almost 73 years old.
Kidney Stones - Dramatic Increase During Pregnancy
Hi all! Im so happy i found this board, hopefully someone can answer some questions for me. Ive posted on a couple of other sites but no one was in the same situation and really couldn't answer my questions. Im 32 and I've had kidney stones on and off for the last 14 years. Usually id just get them once or twice a year but had 2 three year gaps of no new stones. Last November during my third pregnancy i was diagnosed with a stone that i was told was 2/3 of an inch. I passed fragments on a monthly basis and in jan of this year the stone had shrunk to around 1/3 of an inch. I continued to pass fragments on a monthly basis for the entire rest of my pregnancy which ended in mid may when i gave birth. In late june i wound up back in the er for kidney pain and had a ct scan which showed 'several" stones in my left kidney the largest being 8mm, one in the right kidney and a 3mm in the left ureter. Since then I've been passing stones on a weekly basis, I'm in pain almost everyday. I had an x-ray in early august showing 9 stones in my left kidney the largest @ 4mm plus one in the ureter, of course . Then a ct in late aug showed at least 7 stones from 1mm-7mm. So basically my left kidney hates me, and honestly I'm not all that fond of it either at this point. My urologist has referred me to a pm dr. So this brings me to my ?'s. Does anyone here see a pm dr for kidney stone pain and if so how well do they manage your pain? Also has anyone else had a dramatic increase in stone production like this before and how long did it continue? My urologist has told me he has no clue whats going on and other than back to back pregnancies nothing has changed in my life. My father has noticed an increase in stones also but not this sharply. He had his first stone in his late 20's and went about 5 years between occurrences at first but has had 5 stones this last year. Is this just something that occurs more frequently over time? Im at a loss, in pain and really getting scared that this isn't slowing down. Im also scared that this pm dr won't take my pain seriously and i really can't go on like this. Im fed up with the pain and constant infections and its really difficult caring for 3 children when I'm this unwell especially with my 2 youngest being under 18 mos.

I found out I had a B12 deficiency 5 years ago. My levels were very dangerously low at the cellular/functional level. I was told I was near paralysis. Now, after 5 years, they are still low. They have come up to almost borderline, but it still flags red on my tests. My serum levels though are too high for the lab to measure! Its just not getting into my cells so it's not able to be used. I do twice a week injections plus twice a month IV B12 and still it has taken my body 5 years just to go up a little bit. I feel the effects of the shot for about 15 hours barely then I just feel awful again, thankfully it's prescribed every 2 days. But I don't want to do it every 2 days forever!
In the beginning I was told it would take a month or two to get my body back to normal and then just a shot every few months for maintenance. My drs have not only increased my dose but also the frequency and STILL after all these years I'm deficient.

View 5 RepliesVitamin B12 And Vitamin D Deficiency Experienced Nocturnal Anxiety?
I was diagnosed with with B12 and Vitamin D deficiency. Both levels quite low. I have been taking my Vitamin B12 shots for three weeks now. Also I am on supplements for Vitamin D 60000 IU once a week. Most of my symptoms like tingling numbness and headache have gone. But since a few days i have been experiencing this weird feeling in my chest and entire body, the kinds when we are nervous, with palpitation while sleeping. I wake up and sit for sometime and then I seem to be fine. However, it happens again when i am about fall asleep. My GP said its anxiety and prescribed clonazepam. It did help for three days. But yesterday I tried sleeping without taking clonazepam and the same feeling of anxiety and palpitation came back. Is it a part of the vitamin D recovery process? I don't want to take clonazepam regularly. Any suggestions?

I can't be alone in this. I was terrified the opposite would happen but it's crazy I'm now horny all the time. It's actually amusing and I guess it's not a bad thing. I'm 6 weeks in now and I'm not sure sertraline has done much else for me. Life is still very much a struggle. My doctor says I should persist still (I didn't tell him about this side effect) I'm not convinced it's working for me though. Plus I'm single so it's not exactly making life more exciting anyway! I have to laugh - otherwise I'll probably cry!
