Hyperparathyroidism is an increased parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels in the blood. This occurs either from the parathyroid glands inappropriately making too much PTH (primary hyperparathyroidism) or other events triggering increased production by the parathyroid glands (secondary hyperparathyroidism). Most people with primary disease have no symptoms at the time of diagnosis.

Here I am painting a new oval shield with a design based on shields found at the ruined Roman city of Dura Europus (255-257AD). These shields are red in colour (the colour of Mars, god of war) and include wreaths around the boss, a border decoration and detailed figures or creatures. They differ from the shield patterns of the 2nd century. It seems that the famous Roman lightning bolts and eagle wings were no longer used in the 3rd century.
