Jasmine,
     I found out that Dana Delaney had PTH disease a while ago.  Maybe I am reading too much into it but a few years before her surgery her demeanor seemed a little depressed to me.  Her emotion reactions did not seem spontaneous to me.  Maybe the disease was responsible for that.

How interesting, Jasmine.

I notice that Dana D. 's calcium was low and not high, so in my book she must have had secondary HPT.

She can have it - I'm giving that one back from my full set!

And there's a tertiary HPT going begging here too, now!!

Apologies if someone has already posted this from the BBC website today...

Now that's impressive! Thanks for posting Dee, a really interesting read!  I believe there's an article about it in the Times today as well (thanks for the heads up about that Tigerlily)

Hi everyone,
That is fascinating!  I do wonder though if in my case the surgeon would be issued with ear defenders.
