Suggest Ways To Gain Weight After Parathyroid Surgery
I was operated for calcium oxylate kidney stone measuring 12.5mm 2yrs back. Last year I undergone the surgery of PTH gland. Now my PTH, Calcium and VIT D levels are normal. I am not being able to put on weight. I am 26 and my weitgh is 43kg. How do I put on weight quickly.
As Thyroid & Parathyroid gland are in close proximity to each other, so there is every chance of damage to thyroid gland during the surgery.
If your thyroid functions report comes normal then other possibilities also to be ruled out after that. If there is anything else then feel free to ask.
Thanks & Regards Dr. Shiv

Hi, I have gone through your query and understand your concern. In my opinion you should also get your thyroid function tests done. As Thyroid & Parathyroid gland are in close proximity to each other, so there is every chance of damage to thyroid gland during the surgery. If your thyroid functions report comes normal then other possibilities also to be ruled out after that. If there is anything else then feel free to ask. Thanks & Regards Dr. Shiv
