Ever heard of the "calcium controllers" in your neck? ๐ฆ
No, not your thyroid! Weโre talking about your parathyroid glands. These four tiny glands (about the size of a grain of rice!) have a huge job: regulating the calcium levels in your blood.
Sometimes, one or more of these glands can become overactive and produce too much hormone. This condition is called Hyperparathyroidism. ๐
When this happens, your calcium levels can get too high, which can affect your whole body.
Watch out for the "groans, moans, bones, and stones" symptoms:
๐ฆด Bones: Bone pain or osteoporosis (weak bones).
๐ซ Groans: Stomach pain, nausea, or constipation.
๐ง Moans: Fatigue, brain fog, depression, or feeling "just not right."
๐ชจ Stones: Frequent kidney stones.
Many people don't realize they have it until a routine blood test shows high calcium! ๐ฉธ
If youโve been feeling off or dealing with unexplained fatigue and aches, itโs worth a chat with your doctor. A simple check can make a big difference. ๐ฉบโจ
