Thyroid was removed because of multi nodular goitre and I am also on thyroixine, after surgery, I was informed that my parathyroid glands were still intact, although this had never been mentioned prior to surgery, I found this comment rather outlandish, now I find my calcium level is still low (3), GP is baffled, should I question the remarks on my parathyroid glands and would damage to the parathyroid gland cause this condition to be permanant, as doctor has told me to now up my intake to 4000mg from 3000mg. I feel that nobody wants to tell me why this is happening
