Great episode again. Thanks a lot !

I was so happy to see this episode as someone who recently had surgery for PHPT. I'm not a doctor, and I actually had to all but diagnose myself and present the case to my primary. Fortunately, he connected me right away with a surgeon and the next day my surgery was scheduled. Looking back, it's pretty wild that it was missed for years. I had multiple elevated serum calciums going back years (starting borderline at 10.3 mg/dl and trending up), extremely low vitamin D, a DEXA scan showing osteopenia (at age 32, ordered for an unrelated reason), and had recently seen several specialists for my complaints (musculoskeletal pain, headaches, constipation, fatigue, polyuria, polydipsia, etc. -- admittedly vague symptoms). Thank you for tackling this. And curative surgery is a beautiful thing.
