On my results my parathyroid is 2.2 and the range for all ages it says is < 2.0 if this is correct I'm over the limit if that symbol is less then. But my Dr says it's normal I'm confused does anyone else know more about this that can explain

Hi anglfrmhvn69,

Is the doctor who told you that it is normal an MD Endocrinologist? when it comes to parathyroid, as I know, PCP might not has enough knowledge .

Best of luck,

No it was just my regular dr that I see told me it's normal, but I got to looking on my labs and I knew it wasnt. I'm not sure what my calcium level is but .2 over is still over the normal range. I'm going to the Dr tomorrow who should I ask to be referred too?

Hi anglfrmhvn69,

The MD who treats parathyroid is called Endocrinologist, insist on it!

Best of luck and keep us updated,
