Anyone out there have an increase in parathyroid hormone?

Hello, I had parathyroid surgery this summer because my calcium levels were really high. They just left a small part in.

Have you been to an Endocrinologist for the parathyroid elevation? That could be causing your CKD. Best place in my opinion is the Norman Center in Tampa Florida. There are approximately 8-10 physicians who work with patients with Thyroid, Parathyroid and Adrenal issues. They are fantastic and will rapidly move you through there assessment/admission process. I had a parathyroid tumor removed there and upon discharge was provided with all 8 physicians names and cell phone numbers. Did have to call once during early evening hours and received a call back from the physician who did my surgery within 30 minutes. Please have this assessed by your physician immediately before you further compromise your renal situation.

I too had surgery removal of 2 parathyroid glands at Norman Clinic. Very pleased with results, but years later had a kidney removed due to cancer and was stage 4 ckd. Now I am 3b and my nephrologist retired. I live in central Florida. I am searching for a new nephrologist and concerned about diet advice. Trying to obtain a good source of plain foods good for ckd. I can make my own recipes. Any suggestions? maylbee

@maylbee I would consider supplementing your Nephrologist with a Renal Dietician. Even good Nephrologists often have rather minimal training in diet. Of course, run everything you do past your Nephrologist to make sure you aren't getting any dangerous advice from a dietician, but one who is specifically a renal dietitician could help you out.
