You need to see an endocrinologist as soon as possible. Hyperparathyroidism does it's damage slowly and silently and will continue to leach calcium from your bones until the condition is treated with a simple surgery. Hyperparathyroidism is also a major risk factor impaired cognitive function and dementia.
