Currently Taking: Doxy + Flagyl

- Albert EinsteinMarch 31, 2016 at 1:17 pm #455326worldofmeParticipantYea the thyroid function was check and all was normal.
March 31, 2016 at 1:17 pm #455327worldofmeParticipantecocardiogram was normal. I am due for stress test next week with cardio.
March 31, 2016 at 1:18 pm #455328worldofmeParticipantPhil,
My levels have been in the 400ish but below 600ish…Have you notice this on my test results?
March 31, 2016 at 2:12 pm #455329MazKeymasterYea the thyroid function was check and all was normal.
Thyroid is a different gland. The parathyroids control calcium levels in the body and low levels of calcium can cause tetany, which is similar to the symptoms you mentioned. The parathyroids are tiny pea-sized glands that sit behind the thyroid. Low calcium can also be affected by magnesium deficiency.

I take mag every day

Yes, you’re right that surgery is the main cause of hypoparathyroidism, but low magnesium (even with supps) can occur, causing failure of adequate calcium uptake and many of us have low Vit D, which is critical for calcium absorption.

Acquired due to Hypomagnesemia The element magnesium is closely related to the action of calcium in the body. When magnesium levels are too low, calcium levels may also fall. It appears that magnesium is important for parathyroid cells to make PTH normally. Once recognized, this is usually very easy to fix. Chronic alcoholism is a frequent cause of low calcium and magnesium levels which can lead to secretion of Biologically Inactive Parathyroid Hormone.
Also, tetany-like symptoms can occur with heavy metal toxicity and this is well-known and documented.
These are just thoughts to research. I have a close relative with MS and researchers out of UK implicate infections – herpes, chlamydia and spirochetes (like Lyme) – in many neurogenerative diseases and that the evidence can no longer be ignored:
These bugs can really mess up the body’s absorption and use of essential nutrients, sequestering metals and minerals for biofilm formation…this on top of a leaky gut.
