Pancreatitis
There have been recurrent episodes of chronic pancreatitis since 2015 and in the course of last year.we got to know it is related to PTH and calcium levels. They did a surgery of left hemithyroidectomy and told pain will be gone after that. But again pain started after 15 days. And it has been recurrent and pancreas is now damaged and she is not able to eat anything properly and calcium is also restricted due to hypercalcemia. PTH levels aren't coming down and we need a permanent solution.
