Saw the endocrinologist today and had another ultrasound of my thyroid gland done. He was very interested in my recent kidney stone incident and ordered more blood tests to see if I might have this, which can cause kidney stones. If I do, he said it may be due to a tumor on one of my parathyroid glands, which can't be seen with ultrasound, hence the "normal" results even though there is a visible lump on my neck. If the blood tests point to that then he will be referring me to a surgeon. So the medical saga continues...

Actually, I feel fine - the neck lump doesn't hurt or anything. I probably would have put off having it checked for a while longer if it hadn't been for that kidney stone. I was doing some reading about the causes of kidney stones and read that about the parathyroid gland possibly being a culprit. Put two and two together and thought I'd better see a doctor. Hey, what can I say - the fear of the pain of another kidney stone is a great motivator!

I sure hope things are getting better, they still don't know what caused my kidney stone that caused me so much problems, and about a month ago I passed another, I guess I am just prone to them, they sure can make you sick and in pain though

Goodness, Henmama! What a time of it you are having!
I hope you feel better soon.

Ok so I was a bit blind last night.

All my tests came back normal.

My brother woke up every morning with a headache. When he was diagnosed with diabetes he complained of the headaches and they told him it was due to the diabetes. I also think you should have it checked out. Maybe you are pre-diabetic and can use diet to ward or slow it down.
