Hi Everyone,
I'm Jenish from melbourne Australia, recently I got diagnosed with Pappillary Carcinoma and had a surgery to remove whole thyroid. Everything went well, they had the thyroid and couple of lymph nodes sent for biopsy and lucky the carcinoma contained in one nodule and didn't spread anywhere else, I'm going for a radio iodine therapy just to make sure no nasty stuff left anywhere in my body.
Now to the topic, my parathyroid glands are still in there but doctor told me they might get stunned after surgery for few weeks/months so he gave me a few tablets (vitamin d & calcium). After a week since surgery I had headaches right after I consume calcium tablets and I went online and checked symptoms of hypercalceamia and found symptoms like mine, headache, higher rate of urination, bone and joint pains.
I stopped taking calcium tablets but still continued taking vitamin D all the hypercalceamia symptoms were gone until few days ago. Now I'm waking up every morning with my rib cage hurting but the pain goes away after few hours, few vague pains on my joints sometimes lightly stiff jaw joints. not really sure what's happening with me.
Any advice or comments will be appreciated.
Thanks.
