No Problems Now

By Veri • June 14, 2018

I was having kidney and liver problems. I found out I was hyperparathyroid. Medicine I was taking was making me sick - mostly headaches. Too much calcium was making my kidney function go down - from 22% to 16%. I was referred to Dr. Livhits.
Dr. Livhits performed surgery on the right side of my neck removing 2-3 glands. It went smoothly.The attention I got in the hospital was great. Dr. Livhits is a very sweet lady.
Its been two weeks since the surgery and I have no problems now.
