Hi Linda, have you heard about Hypoparathyroidism?Have you gotten a blood test for PTH? (PTH = parathyroid hormone) So you may have thyroid disease.
I have been getting tested all kinds of diseases, but the main focus is Hyperparathyroidism. I was diagnosed in November and I'm still waiting for a treatment plan for my osteoporosis and parathyroid surgery. Last August I was diagnosed with 4th stage kidney disease. September I had my DEXA scan and I have severe osteoporosis. I developed Dupytren's Contracture in both hands and Reynaud's disease in my hands and feet. All these diseases are related to my Hyperparathyroid tumor.
So it's important to investigate your PTH, calcium & vitamin D levels.
Once I have the parathyroidectomy surgery my bone pain, muscle spasms, kidney pain, kidney function, chronic fatigue, depression, mental confusion, memory loss, low energy/no energy, insomnia, weight gain, acid reflux, high BP, heart palpitations, hair thinning/hair loss, excessive dry skin and crankiness & moodiness will go away.

Hi Linda,
You mentioned the 24 hour urine test.
I had that same urine test several months ago. The purpose was to show if I was losing too much calcium through my urine.
As it turned out the 24 hour urine test did ahow that I was losing a very high amount of calcium through my urine.
Hope this helps, good luck with your results
When I was first diagnosed they did 24 he urine and other test to find out if I was losing calcium or if there was a problem absorbing it
Hi Linda...I think the blood tests are for hormone levels, & vitamins....D, B12, Calcium, & POTASSIUM...that's what they tell me!!
