Re: Have form of multipal endocrine neoplasia

[Guest guest]

I am not an expert in this type of surgery. Sorry. Glad to hear you have your aldo under control. Also be sure to let all first degree relatives know. Do you have any other family Hx of this? It would be good to get as much family Hx as possible and discuss with a genetics counsler about who all should be notified if any.

Would be interested in the details of how your PA evolved and finally diagnosed but you have other worries now.

I am not sure how taking just a lymph node(s) out would make an arm or shoulder weak. Would ask for more details.

May your pressure be low!
