- The CENTER for Advanced Parathyroid Surgery presents an animation video describing the parathyroid gland and hyperparathyroidism. Hyperparathyroidism is an excess of parathyroid hormone (PTH) in the bloodstream due to over-activity of one or more of the four parathyroid glands. Learn more about the symptoms of hyperparathyroid disease and how this is effectively treated at the Center of Advanced Parathyroid Surgery - www.hyperparathyroidmd.com/co...

So glad it's finally over! To anyone who's contemplating surgery. As always speak with your doctor about any health related issues. Parathyroid surgery has made my life worth living again.
The way my body has changed in this little time since the surgery, it's been amazing. No more constipation, brain fog, joint pain, digestive issues. Thank God for wonderful doctor's. Whoever needs this surgery go for it!! Don't be afraid trust God & your doctor!. Take your life back.
Congrats with your New life. 💕
@@GrannyDenmark Thank you
@@Hotmamagotdatbomb you're so welcome ❤
Thank you for your post. My mom is getting it tommrow.
@@joliegeo8277 she will be so happy when it's over! All is well I'm excited for her.
I'm a retired nurse...and learned a lot here in this video. I was just diagnosed with this disease and am about to go through testing and surgery, hopefully asap!
hello, how are lady? how I can take this (natpara),becuse I'm in Iraq
Hi Ms. Cheryl Staples, can it treated by taking high dose of d3, lowering PTH and ionized calcium? What is the best protocol to avoid surgery? Thank you.
This has to be the best vid Ive seen on this. The animations really help in understanding whats happening.
Excellent explanation of how the parathyroid hormone works. Well done. It's great to see this information not just for patients but for the medical community.
This is a wonderful video! It perfectly explains parathyroid gland functions & parathyroid disease. Dr. Larian, your expertise in parathyroid disease is much appreciated!
What an incredible medical animation. This is truly an invaluable educational tool for patients. Beautiful work, Dr. Larian!
Guy Massry Glad to hear you enjoyed the parathyroid animation!
Bro I seeing in 2021
I just got diagnosed by the surgeon on Monday, but I fit all of the symptoms. That brain fog and the rest of the symptoms sucks. Especially being tired all of the time. This video was so helpful explaining this.
Thank you so much. What clear picture this paints I just wish physicians would listen and leave their personal biases at home. It would have prevented years of suffering for me. Every symptom here i have and i proved an issue with my thyroid back in 2012 with a private MRI. Long story short I just recently got an Ultrasound that found the tumor on the posterior right side.
Excellent, brief and informative video. Appreciate that there is no hype. As a medical educator, I wish this could be viewed by all GPs, FPs, and even internists of a certain age (like mine) who believe that "stones, bones, and abdominal groans" are the only indications of significant and potentially deadly disease that is so easily curable. Speaking from personal experience, as I myself was misdiagnosed for years. Thank you!
Vitamin K2mk7 helps to reduce calcium in the blood & decalcifies the vascular system. K2mk7 also increases bone health. Please look into this.
Thank you for this. Amazing explanation and the visual graphics are great.
I think this is one of the best explanation and understanding very well ....... Thank you doctor
Visual learner, and this helped alot for my upcoming Endocrine exam. TY
Very good video! The best one I've seen to date. 👍🏽😄
Thank you for this excellent explanation. I'm studying to be a medical interpreter and I need these medical explanations in order to prepare for my exams.
Excellent explanation! Thank you. NJ
excellent video, to the point.
Amazing video
Thank u soo much 🙏
Really made the concept simplified ❣️
Most help full video...touch all points...thank you very much
Thank you! Great job
Thank you ❤️ for sharing this information 🙂
Great video. very clear and informative
Awesome Awesome... Thanks alot for this great lecture
Amazing and brief animation. Will show in my lecture on parathyroid disease. students will definitely enjoy!
Is this hereditary??
Great explanation!!!
Wow I have all of those symptoms and then some ! Constipation, irregular heartbeat, elevated serum calcium,elevated liver enzymes brain fog,insomnia brittle nails Thanks for such a powerful well produced animation ! I’m seeing my dr next week !
Nappycurlykinks yay!!! Hope all went well!
How did it go ??
My goodness the human body is truly Magnificent!
How very informative. Summarized hypercalcaemia and its commonest cause of primary hyperparathyroidism extremely well. Helped incredibly. Thank you.
Diagnosed at 29 with severe osteoporosis after a minor fall crushed one of my vertebrae. After a ton of blood work and 24 hour urine collections the endocrinologist couldn’t find the cause. I was also passing kidney stones. This was 9 years ago and my bone health is regressing back to osteoporosis and I just had 4 stones removed from both kidneys. The surgeon mentioned I should have my thyroid checked again and to be honest I’m hoping for this diagnosis so I can finally find relief with treatment. I do have issues with anxiety and depression, fatigue and memory loss which I’ve attributed to 12 years of nocturnal shifts.
exelent video, congrats
Excellent
Had my surgery before I turned 40.. but was suffering for many years before I got diagnosed. Thank God it's over.
I feel like this is me were your thyroid test coming out fine initially? I think I have this problem but since my thyroid test is fine there's no other way about it although I have high calcium of 3.36 mmol/l I've been suffering for years now
Very good information
Didn't know this hyper thtroidism was so bad.deffenetly looking into getting this removed
outstanding 🏆

@@kurdiszezo2931 Hi
Best video ever for PTH
I believe I have had this disease since age 10. I am 49. This disease must go misdiagnosed constantly. I feel blessed to have discovered via the internet the Norman Parathyroid Center. I look forward to my surgery and my new life! I will encourage everyone I know to have the calcium levels monitored for a period.
Pls help me I m also suffering
I had a goitor removal total thyroidectomy, 15 years later my parathyroid is playing up think got two that are done for. I get all the symptoms and more kinda like a funny vibration comes and goes my lymph nodes swell I can't sleep hair loss cold hot tired wee a lot at times expensive weight gain qnd itchy skin head achs nose bleeds brain fog kidney aches bone aches so much more sometimes think I'm gona have heart attack. Swallowing is hard to.
I was supposed have op b4 first lock down I'm still waiting qnd suffering .
Good luck .
I feel ya on misdiagnosis. On pacemakers, the VA misdiagnosed me for 5 years; I even got kicked out of Gold's gym for passing out during powerlifting. Turned out I have Superior Vena Cava Syndrome, a blood clot around the pacer wires cutting off return blood to the heart and now live with just a 6mm balloon they got thru it. It's like being out of breath for any activity, but I'm actually out of blood!
They checking my mom for parathyroid they just did tests on here to see if she needs surgery. I’m hoping it’s not cancer.
Best tutorial so gd
Like everything else, parathyroid problems are associated with iron overload.
1999, 'Elevated parathyroid hormone 44-68 and osteoarticular changes in patients with genetic hemochromatosis'
Here, correlation with PTH levels and iron deposits. Other studies show hypoparathyroidism, but the latter supposedly is very rare (ok there are 4 glands).
Amazing tutorial
Glad you found it helpful.
exam coming up, bless ur soul.
Very nice
This was a amazing video very informational
Great video very informative, also watched live surgery video. Just had my second kidney stone (9mm, 5mm) liptotripsy in one week with addition of stent, but providers have not been able to explain other Sx (random heart/chest pain, buttock/leg numbness), unexplained significant weight gain in short period of time...I requested a PTH level prior to hospital discharge this morning. results not back yet but suspect having an issue with hyperparathyroidism
Let me know about your testing if you're willing. Thanks!
Im learning about PTH because I had blood work done with a Gastric Doc and my Primary Doc bc I was so sick. My calcium level in my blood is high, vitamin D is terribly low which also showed my results of elevated Hypothyroid. I see the endo doc in 2 wks. Def get all the blood testing done. High calcium in the blood sounds like it could be the trigger of everything.
simply informative
Notes:
Regulation of Ca
If Ca levels aren't exactly right
* Bone Loss
* Intestinal symptoms
* Kidney Diease
* Mental Disturbances
Releases PTH when Ca levels are low
PTH
* Remodels bone to absorb Ca into the blood
* Instructs kidneys to absorb Ca back from urine
* Changes Vit D to active form which helps intestines absorb Ca from food
Weakening of bones --> osteoporosis
Kidney --> Stones
Nervous system --> fatigue, memory loss, poor concentration, anxiety and depression
Stiffening of blood vessels and high BP
Nerves --> sluggish conduction irregularities in the heart --> rhythm abnormalities and palpitations
Intestines--> acid reflux and constipation
Decreased life expectancy
Increase risk of cancers (colon, breast, kidney, prostate)
Thank you 33cbenoit, glad to hear you enjoyed the video!
LarianMD Dr. What if you have Holes in your parathyroid they are just little bitty small holes and there are a lot of them and they hurt all the time can you help me with that????
LarianMD
My parathyroid level I was just checked for is 81.3 however my calcium levels have been low for a long time in this is been overlooked and I have all the symptoms of where do I go what do I do?
Please explain Hypo-parathyroidism!!! Please and thank you! Would mean the world to alot of us with low PTH!!!
Awesome
I have got to get it out ASAP!!
Have you tried herbal medications
@@janicewilliams4880 I actually got the surgery 3 days ago!!! I'm SUPER DUPER happy I did it, My doctor was wonderful....I got immediate results.

How do I get it ready for insurance to pay what kind of test do I need to run I have a tumor I do have an in large tumor on my parathyroid and I have to run test for the insurance to pay you know which ones they are
A M A Z I N G!
I've been recently diagnosed with hyperparathyroidism (HPTH) and hypercalcemia (HPC - these are my own contractions of these terms). Clearly this video helps link the conditions together, as HPTH appears to lead to HPC. I'm waiting on insurance authorization for a nuclear medicine scan of the PTH glands to determine if the adenoma found on one is localized or not, and at the same time to investigate a 2CM nodule at the isthmus of my thyroid gland.
This video is an excellent explanation of this disease and certainly the symptoms mentioned (chronic fatigue, mental concentration, anxiety, and some of the other abdominal problems) fit exactly what I've been dealing with. Thank you.
most if not all other sites fail to do a good scan Norman Parathyroid found mine after 3 hospitals failed.
Gillian Dargan , I will hopefully be going here soon. How are you now?
MARY JOHNSON absolutely great.. it has been 5 years now and doing well.
Gillian Dargan very very happy for you!!!
Change your diet don't take meds or op I wish I knew that b4 but q raw diet restores you thyroid and helps with the rest illuminates hyperglycaemia to research it.
please what is the side effect of the surgery . thanks Dr
what are the disorders of hyperparathyroidism and hypoparathyroidism?
am happy animation
This explains why you get so sick, tired, muscle aches, bone aches, brain fog. Drs need to give this to patients and would save a lot of mental stress about the surgery that is needed. Had my left bottom one removed. had a goiter, with 5 nodules, vitamin dfficiency so bad that had muscle contractions while driving my car. Had to go to ER. did not know what was wrong with me. Scary disease,
Surfer Boy e
Surfer Boy yeah, just to get told u are a hypochondriac or u hv fibromyalgia. 😒
@@beekind6267 I can't get the stupid drs to even test me! Free clinic dr wanted to at least check my thyroid levels.
Yes, it is a monster 👾 I'm dealing with all these symptoms for over 5 years now. So many Dr's I don't have room to list them all. My Endocrinologist just diagnosed me with hyperparathyroidism last week. High calcium in blood- 1 kidney stone already. Very very sick. Hospital ect. Muscles, nervousness extreme, extreme insomnia, central nervous system issues, heart issues, extreme depression, extreme fatigue you just think your going to die & contemplate it too sometimes. Mental issues, brain fog bad, forgetting things while talking, muscle issues ect. I had like all the workup blood this week, turned in 24 hr urine collection this morning. Sestamibi scan appt today, but unfortunately booked till JULY 30TH, YES JULY. It's may 22 2024 now. I hv to wait over 2 months for the scan now. Disappointed on that. My Endocrinologist will be referring after all that to a surgeon I guess. But I want one that is very well at parathyroid surgery! I'm anxious to maybe get some of my health & life bk? I pray on it everyday. It has destroyed my life, no work for several years, a damper on my marriage ect. Put my health at risk and my mental health at risk. What ashame all the suffering I've had to go through and needless Dr's- specialist ect. Testing and all. To be told, we don't know what's wrong with you. I have had Graves disease autoimmune disease - hyperthyroidism for almost 6 years now too. It's been controlled with 1 pill a day, Metholmazole. The high calcium is what the trigger was that let my endocrinologist finally, to say, Houston, we have a PROBLEM! We have a parathyroid problem here now. 😮 I do not take any medications except the one for Graves disease/ hyperthyroidism Metholmazole. I eat well & healthy, lots of water ect. Can't exercise anymore because Muscle issues ect. 61 young years old. Lol 😂 but feel like 101. People tell me I don't look my age, but this has aged me. Hair & nail problems too. And I must not forget SEVERE CONSTIPATION no matter what I take or do or eat or drink also. It has just about killed me, & all the Testing last 6 years. But finally, the pieces are coming together. I was thinking I was just sick & crazy in the mind. I hope to get treated- surgery soon? Good luck to all that may read this & I pray 🙏 for the one's that has this deadly damaging disease. Sĵodrens I have also. Diagnosed with that autoimmune disease as well, 4 years ago. 🙃 may God bless.
I had a a successful Parathyroid surgery in 2015 performed by professor Dr Antonio Sitges Serra at Teknon Clinic in Barcelona,Spain.I had all the symptoms related to this illness,which was caught after being treated from kidney stones.One of my glands was ten times it’s normal size,I just would have loved to catch it earlier in my life and avoid all the symptomatology that is difficult to identify or relate to anything in particular but definitely makes ones life a lot harder,in my case,difficulty in focusing and paying attention,palpitations and tachycardia,high blood pressure,ostheopatia actually,I think I had them all..gradually but consistently,5 years after the surgery,all symptoms improved steadily and now,with my 3 glands left performing as expected,my life is much better.
Juanjo Miret So happy to hear it. I wish people were routinely tested when they have minimal symptoms.
@@LarianMD I've been suffering with this for such a long time. I have most of the symptoms can you please help ease my fear of the anesthesia? & surgery itself.
Unfortunately I have been dealing with this brutal disease for exactly 6 years. On top of receiving a heart transplant, on Easter Sunday April 15 2001 I, Unfortunately am also dealing with nasty disease and planning to go to California for surgery. If, I rely, on Toronto, for my surgery, I will be a Dead man. My arteries used to be clear and now they are 90 percent clogged. Unfortunately this is impossible to reverse in a transplant patient. I set up a fundraiser, and, hopefully will still be alive by the time I have the surgery. I was misdiagnosed by many doctors including Deva Boone and Norman From Parathyroid clinic in Florida. I eventually plan to write my autobiography, but right now need to get to California ASAP.

Hi sir, my wife is facing muscles cramps in hands and body, weakness after delivery with low PTH level and manageable calcium and potassium level. Could please provide me solutions?
What happens after surgery?????
It's unfortunate that there isn't enough info on Hypo-parathyroidism which I have! At the moment I'm taking a synthetic hormone to keep me alive! There needs to be more info on the low calcium disorder!
Do you mean hypothyroidism or Hypoparathyroidism? Very different conditions.
J do have this parathioride gland for abouth 12 years ..it grows slowly..the dokter Saïd hè wil take an eye on it
Henriette Weeber find another doctor.
I wa son Dialisis for 10 years since 19-29 so I might need surgery because they said my thyroid is huge and I choke everytime I eat !
In my country they do not operate.
Normal PTH for me is about 9 to 11.. when its bad its over 20..
I can after and over 15 years liveing with all sideeffeks..feel when it is time to take some ekstra D Vitamin.. thats the only Thing i can do...
My body and mind is broken now.
But if only i had an operation..
Maybe..... you know.. all sideeffeks of PTH would be gone..
I could maybe have a more normal life, loose weight..go out and not feeling affraid, breathe normal, No depressions, ect ect ect❤
Miss my old life.
Thank u for a very good video. ❤💕👏
Sir my hyper parathyroidism level is 64 while my calcium level in blood is 9.5 while my age is 27 is this value Normal??

Passing stones since I was 14.... diagnosed with low bone density at 27 and put on Vitamine D 20k units and Indepamide ... Now 38 and waiting for Doctors to agree on what to do with the 2 tumored parathyroids. Can I have them removed before 40 ;)
TAKE BORON SUPPLEMENTS BEFORE YOU TRY IRREVERSIBLE SURGERY! THEY'RE NO WAY TO GET THOSE GLANDS BACK AFTERWARDS!
@@metaorange302 what boron is supposed to do ?
We have this thing called a calcium and magnesium pump as well as sodium and potassium pump instead of surgery is it possible to increase the magnesium in as well as using IIF intermittent fasting ? I hear intermittent fasting can help cure a lot of malfunction in our body mechanics. Could that also reduce or correct a tumor?
Yes it could do with the process of autophagy.
So is hormone surgery a thing?
I have had hypopatathyroudusm for around 25 years and take 125mcg Thyroxine. In the last year, since menopause, I have skipped heartbeats, but have Ben tod heart is healthy but frightening as it happens every night on lying down worse. Is this related do you think and is what I have the same as in video?
Sharon McIver good morning. It could be that the dose of Thyroxine is too high for your body now. Please do blood tests and check your TSH, Free T3 and Free T4
@@LarianMD I had bloods checked in Feb and was told dose of Thyroxine was fine
what conditions cause high phosphate with high pth low thyroid hormone bone liver and conective tessue desase with heart racing and diarrhea and unbreaking down of certain vegitibles . dockter does not understand why liver and phaspates and pth are high without kidney desaese.... maybe someone can help with a diagnoses because if i dont get to the bottom of it im gona die i feel my self dieing, and ive allmost dies a few times with heart puputaions
I have researched and researched. Too many controdictions!!!! I read 56% of Hyperparathyroidism cases are misdiagnosed. Also read, that low Vitamin D is a way that the body is trying to protect itself if you really do have hyperparathyroidism!!! If doctors fully understoodd the disease they would not prescribe high dosages of vitamin D. There are a series of other blood test to be given not just the PTH test. Be careful do more researh!
"Although surgery may seem like a simple solution for patients who have an elevated PTH level, symptoms, and positive imaging findings, the operation can be harmful for those with secondary HPT because they’re dependent on increased PTH levels to maintain calcium homeostasis, Dr. Iannuzzi said. Parathyroidectomy is associated with 95%-98% cure rates for primary HPT, but patients with secondary HPT are unlikely to have an intraoperative drop in PTH levels. As a result, they often undergo a bilateral neck exploration that predisposes them to nerve injury. More importantly, if the parathyroid tissue they’re dependent on is removed, it may create irreversible hypoparathyroidism." (citation omitted)
Question, it might sound stupid, but does someone with this condition need more calcium in their diet, or less? Or is it a problem in the way the body processes calcium?
No change in calcium consumption, the extra calcium in your blood is controlled by the abnormal parathyroid not how much calcium you consume.
Wat iff there is No specialist that want to cure me parathyoiride gland.j feel horible..can t remember things...feel tired all the time
Henriette Weeber ask for second opinion
Take your health into your own hands! Try glandulars, trace mineral supplementation! Anything else besides or at least before dangerous surgery!
My wife had a thyroidectomy because she had caqncer of it. They put her parathyroids back in, and they are fine I guess. We have rapid formation of mineral deposits in our toilet. Is this an indication of my wife peeing out all her calcium because she has parathyroid disease?
Very good overview, but I am not thrilled with the treatment!!!
Hi I have hypothyroidism and a unknown autoimmune disease, I got my blood work checked and my calcium level was 10.6
Does this mean that I have parathyroid?

@@janicewilliams4880 what can you suggest?
Is snoring one of the sign?
Yes, even living itself! Anything for those surgeons to be able to fill their bank accounts! No wonder our medical system is the worse on the planet with this mindset being that of 99.99% of the medical establishment and 100% of those take insurance/medicaid/medicare except in a few select States!

Dr please help me, I am taking calcium with D3 for 10 months but still I have calcium deficiency, can you please tell me why this happens
Hi Dinesh, I would have to see all your labs to be able to tell you. But intestinal malabsorption can cause it.
Dinesh Kumar you also need k2 to get the calcium to the bones and prevent calcification . It might also be mainly malabsorption like what the dr said. Gut imbalance problems or low stomach acid.
@@ufhhggcvhvcjhv Sir thanks for your help but really I don't know what's going on with my body all test's done but giddiness and weakness is still in my body also neck stiffness and weight loss, and also I feel continually ear sound, what should I do Sir please can you suggest me
Dinesh Kumar since you stated you take vitamin d3 and calcium without k2 is very dangerous it causes calcification too much calcium in the body is fatal it can clog your arteries and cause muscle stiffness but lack of magnesium can also cause muscle stiffness stop calcium take vitamin k2 in both forms mk4 & mk7 i would suggest that you do hair analysis test to see your calcium levels and other nutrients and minerals if calcium is high it means the calcium is not being placed in your bones it’s leaking in the places where it shouldn’t be! That is why k2 directs vitamin d3 and calcium to the bones and sweeps out the excessive amounts. I hope this helps see a nutritional practioner.
Dinesh Kumar also vitamin d3 alone raises calcium naturally!!! You don’t-need to take calcium get it from food green veggies organic dairy products and almonds etc calcium citrate is the best form but I wouldn’t advice you to take it now see a nutritionist.
Or last thing you want to do is test parathyroid gland hormones or a ct scan. This might require surgery if you have non cancerous tumours it needs to be removed to work normally.
How long does surgery take?
Uncomplicated surgery is generally short. The actual removal only takes a few to several minutes. You have to wait for labs drawn after removal to come back to make sure PTH levels have dropped significantly or the surgeon will need to go back in. Therefore a lot depends on the length of time it takes to get those labs back. Maybe 20 minutes of you're lucky. But it is a very delicate procedure due to the location. You want a very knowledgeable and very experienced (in parathyroid surgery) surgeon. There are risks for vocal cord and facial nerve damage. The surgeon should be using a vocal cord monitor (at least in my experience and opinion) and should disclose all risk info prior to surgery. I am so grateful I had an amazing surgeon and a fantastic hospital staff. Unless there are other issues, a minimally invasive PT surgery is typically an outpatient surgery. After mine, went to the pharmacy to pick up pain meds then to Olive Garden for dinner. And shhhhhhh, don't tell my dr but I was in the process of moving so I went and did that in the evening. I had to get at least a mattress to sleep on or it would have been miserable. I did sleep in a recliner for at least a week after that first night though. The elevation of the head and not straining to lift up off a bed were big benefits of the chair. Keeps swelling at a minimum and is just more comfy.

My calcium is 9.3 is hi
It depends on age. Labs do not allow for that. But if you are over 35, your calcium should be in the 9s, not the 10s. Generally speaking of course, as there can be extenuating circumstances that affect things.
@@shoodheabdi7718 were you told it is high? I am not a dr but have done TONS of research on all this after living through the disease myself. I do not know your age or other medical history but in the 9s is not usually considered high. It is normal for most people. Hope that helps a little.

Doctors don't beleive in people getting parathyroid disease, I've had it for years, elevated calcium in my blood at 13, Ostpenia, have fractures, irregular heart beat, constant peeing, thyroid cancer, still doctors ignore real symptoms! What good is to tell real patients when doctors ignore it!!? I even have ultra sounds saying from radiology doctors say I have primary hyperparathyroidism, still my endocrinologist and surgeon said no way, they say the radiologist are wrong!!! What is the answer? I'm 59 years old and had it, as in fed up with all doctors.
So basically we are cyborgs..
