So glad you may be getting some answers. I really need to pursue this once again I've been tempted to see Dr Norman. He's brilliant on the subject. I need to get another scan done first. It's been a few years. Pretty interesting stuff tho. You remind me of myself when I first learned about it. I had never heard about it till my PTH levels were checked and I found the web page, just like you just did. Drs don't seem to check the pth often. I have osteoporosis and so that's why they checked mine. If they checked your PTH, They may have checked around the time of your stones. (Cant imagine having chronic problems with stones. Terrible)

just found a sheet with things ive been diagnosed with- one is “MultiNodular Goiter” (no noticeable swelling in the neck)- which causes hypothyroidism- but my endocrine doc checked all hormonal levels, and they are fine- (that was several years ago)

As with the parathyroid symptoms, the hypothyroid symptoms come very close to my symptoms- but a few i don’t have- like headaches, high blood pressure- etc-

Yeah I’ll have ot ask my doc next month if they ever checked PTH levels- she’ll have all the info I’m sure- I’ll have to write that down to ask-, and also mention the symptoms are quite similar to either para or regular thyroid issues- I just hope she doesn’t order another neck scan lol-

Yeah, ive got more blood test sheets i can check too- going back a number of years- I’ll have to dig those out and check the calcium levels too-

I had Gout about 4 times in my life, all the same big toe joint on my right foot. I was given some Allopurinol, but decided against taking it. The problems with vision changes scared me off of it. There are many side effects from this drug, what’s new. https://www.askapatient.com/viewrating.asp?drug=18659&name=ALLOPURINOL
