    • Close Hypoparathyroidism

      Most of my parathyroids were surgically "accidentally" removed. The 2 remaining ones died from compromised blood supply.

    • Close Thyroid Cancer

      I have papillary follicular variant metastatic thyroid cancer. I had two surgeries for thyroidectomy and 300miSv of radioactive iodine. A little over a year after treatment, I had a new tumor. I have been devastated by surgical mistakes/damage and radiation injury to my entire endocrine system by such a high dose of radioactive iodine. I'm currently on alternative treatments and have seen much better results. Most recent tumor is dead after alternative high pH therapy and without radiation.
