Calcium & Thyroidectomy
Hi Doctor, I had Total thyroidectomy on 28th February , 4 parathyroids were preserved,
DAY 1 after surgery my Calcium was 8.6 .
DAY 2 my Calcium was 8.3.
I was told to take Calcium supplement with vitaminD3 3000mg/ 3 tablets per day for initial 1 week.
Later dosage was reduced to 2000mg , 2 tablets per day.
I had 100mci of Rai therapy on 31st March it went well.
Post RAI Since 3 days I was told to take up 1 tablet per day 1000mg at night.Dosage was reduced because I dint had any tingling sensation in hands and legs post surgery till date.
After 3 days of low dosage intake i.E 1000 mg per day I had a recent Serum Calcium blood test in which calcium was 7.0mg/DL .
It's more than a month my surgery over, after surgery calcium was 8.6
Why did calcium decrease now after a month ?
What could be the risk factors?
What should I do now ?
