Thanks for the quick response Ski. I am pretty sure that they removed all thyroid tissue as there was a lump on it that was unknown as to whether it was cancerous or not. I know that we had discussed a partial removal but we decided on the full removal because of that lump. We didn’t want to have further surgery if the biopsy results came back positive for C. I just wasn’t sure as to why the calcium levels would fluctuate so drastically after the surgery unless the para’s were damaged or removed. Not being a Dr, I have no frame of reference or experience in this area. I am simply a worried husband who just wants his wife home so that she begin the long process of recovery and getting her body back to "normal" after having had to deal with Graves for the last 3-4 years.
Thanks
