A brief analysis of hyperparathyroidism
A high level of calcium in the blood can sometimes be related to an enlarged, over functioning parathyroid gland, resulting in Hyperparathyroidism. This can often be detected by chance on blood tests, which might show a high calcium and high parathyroid hormone level. A high blood calcium level can cause various symptoms and potential complications. Leading ENT consultant Miss Natasha Choudhury provides a brief analysis of the condition, including details of surgery for Primary Hyperparathyroidism.
