No @marcusantoniu26 I never had that diagnosis until I researched it myself and asked to refer me to an endocrinologist that is why I had gotten a treatment about my hyperparathyroid.
I asked the question because I am a nephrologist in the United States. I am used to measure PTH in my patients as part of their evaluation, when they do not require dialysis. When the patients require dialysis our protocols check for PTH periodically. I find your blog posts extremely valuable. I have my medical blog: @secondmedicalop
