Hypoparathyroidism
"I developed hypoparathyroidism after 2013 thyroidectomy for goiter with compressive symptoms. Pre-op PTH 79 and Post-op 7, then undetectable.  My body was literally freezing up, brain function slowed, total body/ facial numbness/fatigue consumed me, seizures, horrific bone pain, flu-like myalgia, even with perfect management of medications and good lab results, but I was barely functional.  I started Natpara June 10, 2015 and began a thawing process.  My thought processes improved, but there was unexplained damage from the years with no parathyroid function.  Please, I hope endocrinologists will study the permanent impact of this disease on patients. I manage a medical practice and with Natpara I can tolerate very limited activity, age 59."
