Calcium Fixup

By Pat • October 31, 2018

Since I am a Type II diabetic, I have lots of blood tests. Although I didn't feel any symptoms, my thyroid was "wacky" and my calcium levels kept going up.
I was referred to Dr. Livhits who is lovely and her assistants are great. She did parathyroid surgery 2 1/2 weeks ago. I stayed in the hospital overnight and then was discharged. Everything is fine.
Everyone of my doctors is at UCLA and I have never had a bad experience!
