But, I'll gab at ya about the high PTH. My D has been on the low side for ever and ever and my PTH has been waaay high. I have taken up to 600,000 iu of VitaLady's dry D/day to no avail. I am now working with a nephrologist (I TOTALLY recommend nephrologists over endocrinologists for malabsorptive vs hormonal D, calcium and PTH issues). So, as I was sayin', my D has been low historically - and my PTH has been high, high, high. After working for 3 mothhs with the nephrologist all of my various different vitamin D levels are now GREAT!!! But, the PTH has not budged. Turns out I have PRIMARY hyperparathyroidism - caused by an adenoma on my parathyroid gland - and it turns out I do not have secondary hyperparathyroidism caused by low D levels. I'm just sayin'... not every health or medical issue is related to the DS or malabsorption. Just a reminder, chickie!
Muah!
