Is Jitter Like A Mild Spasm On Upper Lip After 95% Thyroid Removal A Calcium Concern And Is It OK To Consume Dairy Products?
I had 95% of my thyroid removed November 26th 4 weeks ago. I was informed to be aware of any tingling around lips.Twice in last two hours my upper lip started to jitter like a mild spasm. Would this be considered a concern about calcium? Should I consume dairy products for calcium consumption now? I currently take synthroid once daily .05mg.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I can understand your concern, the tingling sensation is not the sole symptoms of calcium deficiency, if it is there then other prime symptoms of this has to be there, so in my opinion this is just non specific complain and will come around soon take care have nice day.
