I'm sorry; I should have said that my number is 22607. I will post

my story or add to mine if I already have (I told you my memory is

shot).

> What was your BP during pregnancy. With PA it gets better.

I never had any BP issues during pregnancy (that I can remember

anyway). I've ordered my records from my OB's office, but I don't

know if they'll still have them (he died). I did have horrible,

horrible headaches with my second pregnancy, the one that went full

term. However, as I said, my first pregnancy ended at 32 weeks, and

my son suffered a cerebral hemorrhage at some point after his birth

that left him with hemiparesis. I don't know if aldosterone had a

role in the early birth or the cerebral hemorrhage, but nothing has

explained them thus far.

> List all meds and herbs etc you are taking. Any licorice.

Lisinopril 20mg per day; Lisinopril-HCTZ 20/12.5 per day; Toprol

50mg twice per day; Effexor 75 per day; Klor-Kon 40 MEQ twice per

day; Xanax 5mg as needed. No herbs or licorice.

Thanks for reviewing. I'll post my story as soon as I can.

Thanks,

I have some of those symtoms:

uncontrolled hypertension

heart palpatations

memory loss (mostly short term memory)

transposing numbers, letters (and colors)

angry at everyone

muscle cramps

I think a lot of them go with PA but I have recently seen an endo who

thinks I have a parathyroid tumor and all of the symptoms I listed

are also symptoms of parathyroid disease. I also get spells where I

get very hot and start sweating and the best way to help that is to

literally stay cool. I can't tolerate heat and usually keep my house

around 65 deg in the winter and am comfortable in a tee shirt. I

cannot tolerate long sleeves. I also have hyperaldo but since it is

suppressed by saline, doctors tell me it isn't caused by a tumor. My

current endo said it could be caused by diuretics and that makes

sense to me because my bp goes way up when I take diuretics. I am

trying to sort out what problem is causing what symptoms, or maybe it

is the combination of both hormone problems. I also have constant

pain on the bottom of my feet and my fingers and knees, so actually I

think it is my skin. Do you get flushed? One doctor that I saw

thought I had a carcinoid tumor because my chromogranan A level was

high but nothing showed up on the octreotide scan. Diarrhea, which I

don't have, is one of the symptoms of a carcinoid tumor in the

digestive tract. They can also be found in other places. Good luck,

all of us have gone thru many doctors looking for answers.

It is likely caused by a small tumor. See my article and take to your endo.

Dr. Grim,

My latest Cacium and PTH levels done about 2 1/2 weeks ago are:

Calcium 10.7 Range 8.4-10.2

PTH 45 Range 11-67

The blood sample was sent to the May Clinic. My calcium has been

consistently high for almost 7 years. I have been tested for a pheo

over and over and over again and everyone says I do not have one.

From research I have done on the internet, and what I have been told

by doctors, if the calcium level is high, the PTH level should be

low. Although a couple of doctors said they thought I had a PTH

tumor, but no one attempted to do anything about it until now. I

checked the symptoms from a parathyroid web site. According to one

site I looked at, some people who have a PTH tumor don't have any

symptoms and most people have 3 or 4. I have 11. These are the

symptoms listed on the web site www.parathyroid.com:

Loss of energy. Don't feel like doing much. Tired all the time.

Just don't feel well; don't quite feel normal. Hard to explain but

just feel kind of bad.

Feel old. Don't have the interest in things that you used to.

Can't concentrate, or can't keep your concentration like in the

past.

Depression.

Osteoporosis and Osteopenia.

Bones hurt; typically it's bones in the legs and arms but can be

most bones.

Don't sleep like you used to. Wake up in middle of night. Trouble

getting to sleep.

Tired during the day and frequently feel like you want a nap.

Spouse claims you are more irritable and harder to get along with

(cranky, bitchy).

Forget simple things that you used to remember very easily.

Gastric acid reflux; heartburn; GERD.

Decrease in sex drive.

Thinning hair (predominately in older females).

Kidney Stones.

High Blood Pressure (sometimes mild, sometimes quite severe; up and

down a lot).

Recurrent Headaches (usually patients under the age of 40).

Heart Palpitations (arrhythmias). Typically atrial arrhythmias.

Fran,

Have you had a sestimibi scan on your parathyroids?

http://www.endocrineweb.com/parathyroid.html My adenoma showed clearly on a

scan.

There is a graph endos use to plot the level of calcium on one axis and the

PTH level on the other axis. There is a curve that delineates probable HPT.

My calcium was always right at the top of the range or slightly over. The

fact that it was usually " in range " certainly didn't indicate the absence of

the adenoma.

I had most of those symptoms and my life had absolutely come to a

standstill. It had been progressing for 14 years and by the time I had

surgery, I had significant osteoporosis and uncontrollable hypertension.

You seem to have Hyperpara but need to see plot of results from the Mayo

clininc on their graph.

The evolution of Hyper para is very much like the evolution of PA. Review

my article but when it says adrenal aldo produciton change it to parathryoid

homrmone production and think of calcium as 1/potassiium. ie high PTH causes

high Ca, as high aldo causes low K.

Val,

I had a PTH scan on Apr 5. They just called it a PTH scan but I

guess it was a sestimibi scan. It was a nuclear scan. The doctor's

office called and said it was negative but that wasn't uncommon.

From what I have read on parathyroid.com, they don't always show up.

My calcium level has been consistantly high but just barely for about

6 or 7 years. I have been taking magnesium supplements twice a day

for years because my magnesium level is low without them.

My " official " scan also showed negative to the radiologist. I assume that's

because Pacificare didn't want to pay for the surgery. The Pacificare endo

also said nothing was wrong with me except " polymyalgia " because my

osteoporosis was only in my spine and hip; not in my forearm. Honest! Both

the technician and I could see the adenoma (about the size of a quarter) on

the scan. When I got surgery, it was exactly where the scan said it was.

Have you seen your own scan?

On www.parathyroid.com, there are many pictures of adenomas that didn't show

up on scan prior to surgery.

Val,

No, I haven't seen my scan. I will pick it up on my way to the

surgeon so he can look at it. I have read that if the radiologist

hasn't done a lot, they may not be able to pick it up. For a lot of

these people, it's just another day at the office. Fortunately, my

endo has seen several patients with PTH tumors. He is mostly going

by my symptoms and the fact that my calcium has been high for several

years.

<As you will note in my article

'

<Lisinopril and toprol will not work very well in PA.

<Have you ever been on spiro on Inspra.?

Dr. Grim,

I have to agree that these don't work very well ... right now my BP

is 175/117 and I'm feeling pretty bad tonight. I'm sort of in no-

man's land right now. I've been preliminarily accepted by NIH for

their adrenal neoplasms study, but I don't go back until June. I

saw Dr. Salvatori at NIH but I guess he's not my doctor now that

I've switched to NIH, but he is the one who diagnosed the PA. My

local doctor told me to ask him about switching to Spiro (I called

and asked her about it), so I'll do that ... even though I guess

he's not technically my doctor right now. I would like to be on the

right medicine!

One question: I looked for your article to print off to send to my

docs. I found your PowerPoint but can't seem to find the article

itself. Can you tell me where to find it?

Thanks much,
